[quote=Anonymous]IDK. My nieces spent their entire pre-pubescent childhoods smack dab in the 50th percentile. Now they are adults, and one is 4'11" and the other is 5'7". I know it's anecdote, but it's interesting. Their white mom has mostly short woman genes, and their dad (DH's brother) is SE Asian. He does have some women in his family who are tall for their ethnicity, but still. My kid (10) has always been 25-40th for height. I'm 5'2.5", and that's just a bit shorter than average, so similar percentile. DH is 5'5", though he has those taller-than-average genes, too. I expect my kid to end up 5'1"-5'4", and if not, more likely to end up shorter than taller than that-- but who knows? [/quote]
