liftin will not stunt ur growth... it's just a cop out for people who don't want to lift. trust me, lifting will do you good...

*on a side note I had a PR 1RM last night for deadlift. Didn't have any experience in deadlift really other than maybe a few times over seven years ago. started 12 weeks ago doin 145# for 3 sets of 8 reps... last night I got 355#.
