Exactly. There are some out there- sure. And more of them concentrated on certain sports teams (basketball, high level travel teams in various sports). But they are outliers at this age- people just take more notice of them I think.

Not many 6 footers in MS or even freshman year of high school. LOL. HS upperclassmen- a larger handful reach that height, sure. But still a small minority.

I’m 5-8” and my 14 year old is 6-2”, surpassed me maybe in 7th grade. My 11 year old is 5’-5” so likely 7th grade too.

Good/bad is a weird take. It is what it is. No one has control over it, children grow based on their genetics.

My son is 12 and 6'. Taller than me at age 11. Dr thinks he's almost done growing (maybe 3-4 more inches).
