Replies longhornforever23 Posted at 1:33 am on Nov. 30, 2008 it's genes, and you might not grow much more :/ austin s23 Posted at 12:26 am on Nov. 30, 2008 it happens drink milk 0h h3ll n0 Posted at 4:42 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 Hmm Idk why its like that....I'm kind of the opposite...my mum is like 5ft7, I'm almost 5ft9 (I'm a girl) and my dad is only 5ft10-11ish I think. SavannahNoel Posted at 4:38 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 Haha. Don't worry, I'm 5 foot 0. blufindr Posted at 4:32 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 It's some recession thing. The highest you'll get would be your mom's height. Unless you have really fantastic genes. namefake3 Posted at 4:32 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 you have faulty gennetics Spuddlesworth Posted at 4:31 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 Doesn't quite work like that.  It's a multi-allelic system. I'm also your height and I'm 19.  I feel the same as when I was 17 though. Ska Ninja Posted at 4:29 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 God hates you!!! imSOFAKINGrad Posted at 4:29 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 you got your moms genes. katjassidekick Posted at 4:29 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 You're only 17, I'm guessing you're a male... you still have time to grow.
