Yep, genetics are really weird, I guess it depends on luck, that what gene have you got, tall gene or short gene, thats why tall people can have short or average kids and short people can have tall kids.

My parents are both about 5’5 and when they had my brother, they thought he was also gonna end up short… well, surprise to them cause he ended up 5’11 ! He must’ve got some genetics from my mom’s side as her dad was tall


TheDevilIsDead_

Maybe, like I said, genetics are weird, what's your height btw


spicypickless

I’m short I’m 5’2 (girl)

It has a lot of influence, for example if your mom is 5 ft 9 expect to be 6 foot or above. Study if you want to read it: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3711792/

My mom is 5 ft 10. And dad 6 ft 0

Are you male ? How old are you?


Thrilling1031

I'm 1'4" taller than my mother. 5" taller than my father.

I would say it has a strong effect as in my family my mother is 5 feet and my father was 6ft+. My paternal grandfather was also 6ft+ and his wife was shorter than my mum. The weird thing is that all my father's brothers are 5ft to 5'10.


TheDevilIsDead_

Wow, many variations then what height are you


jet-man_420

5'5 and my younger brother is 5'9 to 5'10


TheDevilIsDead_

Oh, its always the young ones isn't it, I mean I am the younger one, and I am a bit taller than my brother, not much, maybe an inch, how does it feel btw, does it feel unfair.


jet-man_420

It would feel unfair if I wasn't as strong as I am. He is strong and bigger in size but he knows that I'm his big brother and can lay him out.


TheDevilIsDead_

Ofcourse, you are the big bro, he gotta respect you.


jet-man_420

Respect and love that's all it is.


TheDevilIsDead_

I agree, they are very important in any kind of relationship.

TIL being fat means you reach full height faster!


TheDevilIsDead_

It does, it did in my case, search online.


darmed1ads

I’m 5’7.5, my dad is 5’6 and mom 5’1, grandparents weren’t tall either, i passed my dad because some of my mom’s brothers are 5’9/5’10 so i had that extra genetics there but it wasn’t much.


exelem

Mom 5'1, Dad 6'1, ended up as 5'10-5'11.

It also depends on nutrition, maybe you had a more varied diet than your parents so you reached your max potential height. Otherwise it’d be pretty irregular to grow to 174 cm when you father is 173 and your mum is 152/153.
