[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what’s going on, but my sons are short. My 16 year old is 5’7” and my 14 year-old is steadily growing—he’s 5’9” now, up from 5’7” a couple of months ago. His voice hasn’t cracked yet, so I think he has another growth spurt left. My 14 year old was always taller than average so not sure why his growth isn’t matching that now, while my 16 year old was always shorter. My 17-year-old daughter is barely 5’6” and has always been tall—she was 5’4” at 12. My 12 year old daughter is 5’2”, and my 10 year old daughter is taller than my 17 year old was at that age. I’m 5’4/5’5” and my husband is 5’9”, so I’m not sure why my sons are shorter.[/quote] I think sometimes this just happens, and they can get whatever combination of genes from you/spouse or either side of the family. Our DD is 5’8”, and DS2 is 6’1” at age 15 (might grow a little more, not sure). Our DS1 is 5’8” and is definitely done growing. Same parents (we are 6’0” and 5’7”) We just ended up with 2 tall kids and one who is less tall. [/quote]
