Easy there, surely you dont need to do so much exercise, 100 is plenty and still makes a difference.

Are you trying to loose or gain weight? And you haven't made it clear what else your doing, example, dieting- if so what kind... i can't really state if it will affect your growth if there isn't enough substance.

If you want to build muscle you need to go to a weight room and do a variety of exercises. Push-ups are a great exercise but they don't work all your upper body muscles effectively. Also, there are much better ab exercises than sit-ups.

You should have a very intense exercise routine then take a rest day between workouts. If you really want to train every day than you can do a program where you work lower body one day, upper body the next; that's what many hard core lifters do. I like to do ab work every day; that is one muscle group that doesn't seem to need a rest day between workouts.

You will build muscle doing a bazillion pushups but you will get better results from a sensible program. Workout smarter not harder.

It is possible for weight training to stunt your growth. Lifting heavy weights can cause the early closing of growth plates in your bones. In this case doing high weight/low reps is more likely cause this than hundreds of any exercise.
