[quote=Anonymous]Growth curve for boys https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/set1clinical/cj41l021.pdf You can follow the 50th percentile (or any percentile) and see that it continues going up after 16 and even after 18. Obviously, not for everyone, these are estimates based on summaries from a given sample. But it's not true that most boys stop growing at 16 or even that "many" stop growing at 14. (PP whose boys stopped growing at 14 - how old are they now? If they're like 17 now, they may still have another spurt.) Compare this to the growth curve for girls and note how much faster the girls one flattens https://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/data/set1clinical/cj41l022.pdf There's barely any change after age 17 for girls.[/quote]
