[quote=Anonymous]PP- FYI- time is of the essence and that was brought up to his at our apt when this was discussed. Once growth plates in wrist are closed, nothing can be done. That usually happens in high school but not always. They will also do bone age which shows his growth age on bones bs chronological age. My son has always been 1 year below in bone age. So at 13, he had bone development of 12 years. That was great for us as game us more time. At 17 he is still growing although now in full puberty. So when we started he was in level 1 which is pre puberty. So you can get through puberty and still have open growth plates. Your decision should be based, in my opinion, on the growth hormone level. Decide quickly as you probably have three to 4 years best case - more like 3. Every day counts. [/quote]
