[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a 5’2” 9 year old girl - she would rather be short. [/quote] This question almost always comes up for boys only. It’s very odd that OPs example used a girl. [/quote] Hypercompetitive UMC and wealthy parents now view taller girls as a valuable asset in both athletics (which is now viewed as important for both college admissions and careers) and the marriage market. The modern ideal for wealthy people is a tall, academic, athletic kid who marries a tall, academic, athletic spouse when they are both in their 20s, upping the odds that they will produce multiple tall, academic, athletic kids of their owns. It's a weird eugenics thing but I'm not surprised some parents are willing to use drugs to cheat the genetic factor.[/quote]
