[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boys stop growing taller at around 16; girls 14-15. Obviously their bodies continue to change and fill out. Our ped told us to expect growth spurt a few months after 13th bday and he was spot on. Your son might be a late bloomer but I would definitely get it checked out.[/quote] I think if the boy is showing puberty signs in MS, chances are, he will stop growing at 16. But, OP's DS seems to not be showing too many signs of puberty. As a PP stated, check the tanner chart. https://www.healthline.com/health/parenting/stages-of-puberty#acne [quote]In boys, stage 5 usually starts around age 15. .. By age 18 most boys have reached full growth. [/quote] There are 5 stages. My 16 yr old is in stage 3 to 4 -- late bloomer. OP can determine what stage their DS is in, though some of the markers may be kind of hard to find out from their DS.[/quote]
