[quote=Anonymous]I just “knew” he would be tall based on our genes (I am average at 5’4 but my husband is 6’4) and he was born super long and skinny. Then he stayed tall through childhood with huge feet. As an 11 year old he was 5’6 and towered over everyone, but puberty was early and by 8th grade he was pretty much done growing in height. As an 18 year old he is 5’8 and has filled out but not grown in height in years. My DH was a late grower so he still imagines my son will have another growth spurt but I know he is done. My 13 year old daughter is now his height and soon to pass him, so I guess she got the tall genes. It really can’t be predicted based on early childhood or even really parental height. So many genes involved. Timing of puberty plays a big role too. [/quote]
