[quote=Anonymous]OP here. My husband and I figured out that we think that she equates height with age. I have a very tall (6'5") much younger cousin and she asked DH why he was so much taller than I even though I was older. She will most likely be my height at 5'3" if you follow her growth curve, whereas DS will most likely be like my husband (6'1") following his curve. She should be used to seeing a shorter woman (and I have a twin who's 5'4") with a taller man- should not be an unfamiliar dynamic. So, because she equates height with age, I think she takes offense when people ooh and ah over DS' height b/c she feels like that means he's older than she is and she knows that isn't so. [/quote]
