well males stop growning at 21 so i think your going to be taller,5 more years buddy

How should we know? You need to see a doctor if you really want to know.

yes, boys usually can grow to at least 21.

lol good one hahahahahahaha

nobody knows this answer nobody can predict the future only god of course

Well, your genetics are not particularly in your favor. You might eke out another inch or two by 20, but your main growing is pretty much done.

why are boys so worried about this?


anyways, yes you can grow until you're 18-19-20..

good luck.

Since you are only 17 years old right now & still have a couple more years of growth, I think that you could grow as tall as your Dad or perhaps even taller.

I hope this helps.

It's possible son for it's not just how big your parents are. Your grandparents on both sides also contribute to your genetic makeup.
If one of them, or some other relative for that matter is tall, then you still have a chance.
Good Luck.

You get your height from both sides of your family so most likely you grow a few inches more than your father. But I think that you will probably stay where you are for now.

im 5 3 and 15 and my parents are the same heights as yours

i am 6.1
