I was just wondering when I will stop growing? Is it approximately when my dad stopped? (I'm about a year ahead of him puberty wise when he was my age).. Is there any way to know?

It is usually somewhere in your early twenties. But there is no way to really be 100% sure. It could be similiar to when your dad stopped, but might not be exact.

its whenever your body stops, nothing but your body will affect when you grow and when you stop

Alright. Thanks a lot.
I think I'm tall for my age.. I'm 5'10 and I'm 13.. Does that sound tall to you? (I'm also a size 11 shoe)

When I was thirteen I was about 5'8" with size 12 shoes. Now I'm 18, 5'10", size 12. I stopped growing early, I haven't grown since like freshman year.
Everyone is different. Some people haven't even started growing by the time I stopped growing.

It depends on a lot of things, there is no way to tell for sure. Occasionally people can still grow well into their 20's. 5'10 for a 13 year old is pretty tall, you could continue to grow, or that may mean that you are going to slow down soon.

on average, people usually stop getting taller in their late teens, at least by 17 and younger for girls.
i dont know anyone over 18 who is still getting taller, you are pretty much set by then.
