When did your sons get taller than you?

[Anonymous]

Assuming that they have gotten taller than you of course, as their mother? I mean I know its not guaranteed but I don't think I know of any sons who aren't taller than their moms, even those who are short have shorter moms.

I also know if you are a shorter woman, this will happen sooner- obviously.

But I can't picture looking at my kids in the eye at my eye level. I'm 5'9", so not super tall but certainly taller than most women.

Just curious what the average has been

I'm 5'9" and I think it was around 7th-8th grade.

I'm 5'7. My 13 yo is around 5'4ish. I suspect he'll be taller than me by the time he turns 14, in January.

My almost 12 year old is just about to pass me. But I'm short-5'2".

I'm 5'6".

I am 5'5 and my son passed me at 12.

Not yet, and he's 16. I still have hopes, though, because he's nearly my height, which is 5'4".

My daughter will be shorter than I am, by a considerable amount. Apparently they inherited all our short genes on both sides of the family...

I'm 5'4". My oldest passed me when he was 12, my youngest (right now) at 13.

Hubby is 6'.1". My oldest is 5'.11" now.

I'm officially the shortest one in the family and I love it! LOL.
