[quote=Anonymous][quote]Where the hell did you read that? Boys grow beyond 16. Its girls who stop growing at 16.[/quote] They do grow some, but generally, significant growth spurts are usually done prior to 16. I am sure people will post their own counterexamples, which is fine, and of course they exist, but I am telling you what my kids' doctor told us occurs on average. My son is mixed race (my ex is from Central America), and is shorter than average (a hair under 5'8" at 17, almost 18). Honestly, all this hand wringing on this site about males being short is ridiculous. He has a good life, plays soccer for his high school, and has good grades and a nice girlfriend.[/quote]
