not an exact science. has to do with dominant and recessive genes. which ever the genes fit together will determine the output. Like Punnet Squares. Could be shorter, in the middle, or taller than both of you.

supposedly- you double your height from age 2 1/2 or 3 but that is either an urban myth or a rule of thumb from who know where- your dr. can guide you as to your possible height-the best you can do is eat right, sleep enough, get plenty of normal exercise- and be happy you are healthy regardless of your height- be a good person-regardless of your height-that is not the most importamnt thing- be happy-be healthy- i had uncles who were short and some who were tall-all from the same parents- it did not affect their lives- don't worry- be happy !!

I think that sounds fine. My wife is 5'4 and 120lbs...so I think "shorter" girls are cute. And 130 is not fat, not even close. I bet you are a very attractive lady.

All 11 yr olds are different. My little sister is 13 and is 5'9. There's nothing worng with being tall. Just enjoy life & don't worry about it.

If you are 5'10" already at the age of 14, in all probability you will be over six feet tall as an adult.  Just because your  mother is a petite lady does not mean that your height will be somewhere between her height and your dad's height.  For one thing, you are a male and secondly, you have to take into consideration the adult height of her dad and her brothers, since they are also males.\n\nWhoever told you that you stop growing at the age of 14 does not know too much about the development of children or adolescents or genetics in general.  \n\nYou are going to be a tall guy like your dad!

I do think you are tall.I'm not sure if you will keep growing but I do know one of my male cousins stayed at 5'8" until he was 18-20 when he grew a few more inches to 6'.

since she is pretty tall for that age, she is only slightly overweight, becos an adult woman of the same height will be about 115-135 pounds,A 11 year-old is normally 4'5" and about 75 pound, so she will be a very tall woman and she will grow into her weight.

Your final adult height is dependent on a number of factors. Genereally it is thought to be 70% Genes and 30% Nutrition. By This i mean 'how tall you can grow, but not necessarily how tall you will grow' is largely determined by how tall your family is. If your parents are tall there is a good chance you will be tall.\n\n 5 foot 7 is a good height for someone who is just 14 and you will continue to grow - but no not at the same rate 6 inches in 1.5 years is amazing but u 'will not' continue at the same rate and will gradually slow down towards the end of puberty until you stop growing at an average age for boys of about 17 and younger for girls about 14 - 15, i was about the same at14, im 5 foot 11 now (same height as my dad). \n\n Nutrition is extremely important during this period in your life and yes milk will help to give you strong bones and help you to continue to grow in a healthy way. You should be drinking a little more milk generally, 3 cups a day.\n\n No one is to say exactly when you will stop growing, some men continue till their 20s so you'll know in the end, just look after yourself, dont get into bad habits that could stunt your growth like smoking and you are likely to be a big strong lad soon. It is always good for a man to be tall and whereever you end up is good, no one is to say what a good height is but over 6 foot is considered good really (opinion not fact) - be proud of however tall you are.\n\n and lol yea....its ok to go out with a chick taller than you if you're cool with it...girls go through puberty quicker and so are taller than boys at first and then guys catch up - generally ending up taller than women - dont let height interfere with your love life.\n\n and good luck keep growing! - talk to your doctor for real useful advice on your growth and 'any' questions you have.

depends on how tall she is. I am 4ft 11" and I am 27. Most kids that age are about my height. ( I know its sad)  I should weigh between 100-115. :) Hope this helps. Or you can make a doctors appointment and discuss it with the doctor.

They might be between 4.5-6 inches which is the average but it all depends on their height mainly.

sucks to work with the person you are married to.  You see them 24/7.   Not much to talk about after work, because each of you already knows what happened.  The height thing has no bearing.  I am only 5"...my daughter swears 4'11"...but I have almost ALWAYS dated guys who were no less than 6'3".  I never planned that, it just happens.  My current husband is only 5'10" and the guy that wants me after we divorce, if we do, is only like 5'8".  You need to look at common interests, common goals, morals, but mostly you just need to see if you can picture yourself with this person 30 or 40 years down the road.

They say by age 2, double their height and it will be your adult height.  Haven't tried it, so I don't know for sure.\nPS:  I doubled my son's height at age 2 and he was to be 6'2" tall.  He made it to 6'1 1/2".  Pretty close I'd say.

You've already surpassed your mom's height, so my guess is that you'll be over 6'.

This depends on a lot of factors, like genetics.  So, there's really no way for me to predict this.\n\nHowever, my grandson grew 2-3 inches in height between the ages of 18 and 20 - so I do know it is possible in some cases.\n\nWhy do you want to be taller?  In my family that's tall - I'm only 4'10" and my sisters are 4'11" and 5'0".  Not everyone has to be tall.

Yes, you are tall for your age.  There is a possibility that you could reach 6 ft. tall, but there's also the chance that you grew much faster than others at an early age and will quit growing soon.  That's what happened to my cousin.  She was 5'7 at 13, but she only grew an inch and a half more in the year after that and then stopped.

My husband was only 5'9" tall when he was a senior in high school, his JUNIOR year of college he grew FIVE inches, so you just never know!!!!\n\nGood luck to you!
