[quote=Anonymous]I would focus on the things he excels at, on the activities that give him high self-esteem. His sisters may always be taller than him, so I wouldn't say stuff about how if you eat well, you will grow. I'd ask my daughters not to pick him up, and take away a privilege when they do. There are negatives to being a tall girl, so you might want to point that out to him. Everyone has parts of physical parts of themselves they'd like to change. If he were tall, he might start obsessing about the size of his nose. If he were balding prematurely, he might worry about that more than his height.[/quote]
