[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you tell whether your child has yet to have a big growth spurt? My son grew 3 inches between age 13 and 14. Are there usually multiple years of growth?[/quote] My son has had some sports injuries. I always have them check his growth plates (out of curiosity) when he has x-rays. He is 5'5" and 12yrs old and has not hit puberty. Last time we were at the ortho, they said his growth plates were "wide open" and to expect him taller than 6'2", probably 6'4". They can guess how tall kids will be based on their age, current height and space between the growth plates.[/quote]
