[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just think my son is going to be short. He’s 14 and 5’3”. It’s hard to know because he just started puberty. My doctor said that some kids grow 6 inches during their growth spurt and then a few afterwards. So that would make him 5’11” ish. Just sounds crazy that someone so small at 14 would turn out to be that big. He has really small hands and feet. Size 7![/quote] If he’s got height in his family he still might grow. My son was probably 5’3 when he turned 14. He turns 16 next month and is about 5’10. It’s hard to believe how much he’s grown and his feet are still growing, so he’ll probably have more to come. He was always one of the short boys, so is very happy to now be taller than some who grew early. He’s now trying to build some muscle that those who have stopped growing have been able to develop. His Dad also grew late and thru college. [/quote]
