[quote=Anonymous]I feel you, OP. And lots of stories on this thread about short boys who grew a lot in Hs/college but not mine he is just small and it is his dad’s genes, not mine, but I still feel mom-guilt over it! He is/was passionate about sports but really petered out by end of middle school because it was clear he didn’t have a chance to make the basketball or baseball teams because of his short and petite size. He did run XC in high school which he never loved but at least it gave him a team. He also tried very hard to lift weights in his upper HS years (and drink protein shakes, etc) bc a lot of boys get into that beyond their primary sport at that age, but he is just not the build to ever have a muscular, strong looking physique. I know there are rogue stories of kids who grow a lot at a later age, but by 17 most boys are full height. [/quote]
