[quote=Anonymous]This post is odd - a 13 year old boy should not be four feet, 7 inches and 70 pounds. He cannot have been at a normal weight, gained 20 pounds and still be “normal weight”. I am worried you have not been providing adequate sized meals and nutrition for him, which stunted his growth - it may be he is hungry and eating whatever he can obtain to compensate, and that is allowing him to catch up on weight. Not unusual for kids to plump up before they gain a few inches in height. How long since he had his annual physical with a physician? What did they say about his height/weight?[/quote]
