Does lifting weights (even if it small weights) stunt my growth?

In 6th grade, my parents gave me 2 dumbells that are 8 pounds each (not much). I lifted it a lot for a long time until I found out about that "stunt-growth if you lift weight stuff". I didn't believe in it because I found it stupid so I lifted through 7th grade. Now I'm in 8th grade and I only gained about like 2 inches of height ever since 6th grade. I am now 5'1 or 5'2 and well I'm kinda scared that I will be like this forever. My brother was 5'5 during 8th grade so I'm starting to think it the weights. Plz help? =)
