[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother is 5 foot nothing. My dad is 5’8”. My sister is 5’10”. She’s definitely both of their child. It’s so weird. People are always like, where did the talk genes come from? I am 5’3”. It’s so interesting![/quote] Genes are definitely funny. There must be a tall person in the family somewhere. Red hair is the same. DC's grandfather has red hair. Skipped a generation. DC has red hair. Totally different hair color to all of us. As for height, statistically, the height chart is a good indicator, and statistically, on average, boys stop growing around 16. BUT, "average" means that there are those who grow way after 16. It also depends on when the boy hit puberty. Generally, the later you hit puberty, the longer time you have to grow. DH and I both hit puberty late, so no surprise that all of our kids are hitting puberty late, and that includes growth. [/quote]
