[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anyone mention ethnicity? Asian men are genetically short. The average height is 5’5” for many Asian countries. Specifically India is 5’6”. [/quote] I don't think stating average height in other countries is helpful...presumably OP's son has been raised in the US with some semblance of an American diet.[/quote] +1 The average height for South Korean men (who now eat a lot more protein, ie meat) is like 5'8". Those who grew up here in the US are probably not that dissimilar in height, ie, around 5'9". While 5.8" is not "tall", they are also not really short like 5'5". Yes, there are a lot of short Korean men, but they tend to be over 40 years of age. The younger men/boys here are much taller than the previous generation due to diet. -Korean American[/quote]
