[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes.  Unfortunately made varsity in his sport as freshman - so drubbing the big guys in their sport of choice has inflicted some of the abuse - but doesn’t explain it all.

Thanks to PP who said [b]parents act like height is an accomplishment.[/b]  He works really hard in his sport and is pretty solid citizen.  But the daily - sounds like hourly on some days - emphasis makes me doubt humanity sometimes.  Are we really this primal?[/quote]

Had some acquaintances who went on and on and on about how tall their son was when the boys were playing AAA Hockey as U14?15? (Can't exactly remember).  He was...but they failed to notice that he stopped growing for almost a year and by the time they took him to have him checked, too late.  He's 5'7" now at 23.  Lots of early puberty and absurd focus on height, but it's not always what they think it wiil be.

Also:  there's really nothing wrong with whatever your height is as long as nobody has given you a complex about it. [/quote]

You are ridiculous. They failed to notice he stopped growing? Many boys are done growing at 14. What do you think they should have done about it? [/quote]
