[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree.  I’m son is 12 and his friends and even their parents think it fine to comment on his height.  I do believe they don’t intend to be mean spirited, but it is still unkind.  These same people would never comment on someone’s weight- but height seems to be fair game.  Which makes zero sense as one has no control over how tall they will be and at what rate they will grow. [/quote]

Omg. My younger one used to get that sh@t—even in preschool !!! We had a neighbor say something about our oldest being short in middle school (he was about 50% height). We are late growers.

I love my kid now towers over the most obnoxious mom who’s done stayed the same 5’7” he was in 6th grade.

Senior is now 6’1” was 5’4” in 9th.

Sophomore looks very young, very very skinny (15years old)— just starting to grow now. 5’2”-3 last year. He’s around 5’7” with a baby face and voice hasn’t dropped. I think he is going to end up taller than older sibling.  And this kid took so much abuse about his height—even from ahole coaches in 6th-7th grade (not basketball).[/quote]
