[quote=Anonymous]Both men and women’s height centiles matter. If a woman is 50% (5 ft 4) and Dad is 5 ft 9-11 (50% centile approx) then a child has every chance of hitting 5 ft 11. If a woman is 5 ft 7 (65% centile) and the Dad is 5 ft 9-11 then a boy is likely to be over 6 ft. But diet and hygiene matters massively - it’s widely known that greater height is caused by eating more vitamin A, C, D and not having a diarrhea / vomitting virus before 5. So if you grew up in a 3rd world country and are only 5 frt 3 and 5 ft 4 you can through lifestyle create much, much taller children.[/quote]
