[quote=Anonymous]My son's pediatrician predicted his adult height to be 5'9" when he was 8 or 9. He is now 17, about to graduate high school, and he's 5'9" and hasn't grown for a while. He had his main growth spurt between 13.5 and 14 and was probably 5'4 when he started high school (right before turning 14). For most of 8th grade, he looked and sounded like he was 10 or 11. Just because everyone has a husband, son, nephew, uncle, etc. who is over 6 feet doesn't mean that every male child will eventually get there if they just sleep a lot and drink milk. Being 5'7 is just as "normal" as being 6'2.[/quote]
