or maybe they have hyper personalities to make up for their lack of stature?
I don't think it is to make up for anything. The girls I loved when I was younger, were in the growth part of their lives as I was. They were practically bouncing off the walls with energy, and over time it was the calmer girls who grew taller ... and wider.
Have you ever watch girls gymnastics in the Olympics? A lot of those girls are tiny because they spend so much of their lives training. If they win or quit before their growth is over, they shoot up like a weed afterword, because they are no longer expending the energy needed by the body to grow. The ones that keep doing it past their growth spurt never grow taller.
