Should I be forthcoming?

Most individuals in my place of origin lack awareness; many are unfamiliar with the concept of the growth plate. Even my uncle thinks individuals can increase their height until they reach 30 years old. If I ever decide to undergo limb lengthening surgery and individuals observe my increased height, I will divert their attention by responding with a simple “is it true?” to prevent further inquiries, assuming they will not probe deeper.

Gain more confidence so that you can cease worrying and pondering about the thoughts of individuals in your town regarding you. Why does it even matter what their opinions are about you? If it’s not for limb lengthening, they will discover another reason to either appreciate or disapprove of you. Refuse to be their victim and alter yourself based on their judgments of you; only individuals lacking strength do that and concern themselves with it. In the event that you undergo LL, your family will eventually learn about it, unless you opt for a minimal amount like less than 5 cm, and they will likely share this information with others. You might face mockery for being short or for having undergone limb lengthening. Personally, I would opt for the latter, as then you can confront the detractors (just kidding – resorting to violence is for individuals with lower intelligence levels).
