[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has to do with when your son hits puberty. [/quote] +1 DS is a late bloomer (so were us parents). He was 5'5.5" at 16 and really hit puberty around 16. He's now 19 and about 5'11". I think he grew an inch while away at college the first year. He was always the shortest in his friend group until around 16, and now he's almost the tallest. DH said he grew till about 20/21. Pediatrician thinks DS will be about 6', which tracks if he grows another 1" in the next year or so. [/quote] +2 Just depends when your DS hits puberty. Most boys will be done growing height wise by 16 but not all. My older DS didn’t even start his growth spurt until he was almost 15. He just turned 16 and is still growing rapidly (an inch every 2-3 months). My younger DS, on the either hand, started his growth spurt on time at 12-13. Is currently 14 and growth already slowing down- he will almost certainly be done growing at 16. [/quote]
