Not Very Tall

[kilkenny]

My son who is 15 years old is only 5ft 2in tall. he has hardly grown in the last two years and not at all in the last year. It is upsetting him a bit as all his friends are outstretching him. It may be he is destined to be small but given his age is he likely to have a growth spurt??????

Hey Kilkenny.
My Boyfriend was 5ft nothing until he was 16... and then he had a growth spurt between the ages of 16-20, and is now a handsome 5ft6in tall.
Guys don't normally hit puberty up till 18, so he may grow in the next to year or two.

'Guys don't normally hit puberty up till 18' Where on earth did you get that piece of nonsense from?

My husband grew another 6 inches in height when he was 17. Lots of fresh air exercise and milk
