Family history, and growth.?!


Question:

Family history, and growth.?

I am 2 months from my 15th birthday. I currently stand 6 feet tall and weight 134 pounds. My doctor told me he wasnt sure if i would grow anymore, but he said I could look at my family history to get a better idea. My dad told me that he grew several inches after he turned 15. Does this mean that I will grow more, like my dad? Please tell me if you think Ill grow, and how tall.


Answers:

You'll have to look at your grandparents too.

My dad is over six foot. His mom is 5 ft. something, and his dad is over 6 ft.

My mom is 5 ft. --her mom was 5 ft., her dad was 6 ft.

I am 4'11, and my sister is 5 ft. 6...weird, huh?
