What's considered to be midget height?!


Question: What's considered to be midget height!?
I've been hearing from doctors that I'm 4'10!.2!. Well, today, I stepped on an electronical scale that gives both height and weight and it said i'm 4!.9!. Am I considered to be a midget!? I don't have real short limbs or anything!. Everything is proportioned properly, except I'm slightly over weight, but that's it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
There are many things to consider before you give up on growing!. First, you did not say how old you are!. I am 5'5" tall and I can tell you that I was probably under 4' tall until I was about 13 yrs old!. I was considered short!. I knew that I was going to be short, my parents were short, my grandparents were short!. No big deal!. Here are some average height statistics from around the world:
England 5'9!.6" male 5'4!.4" female ages studied 16-24
US 5'9!.3" male 5'3!.8" female 20+
US 5'10!.2" male 5'4!.6" female white american 20-39
Philippines 5'4!.4" male 4'11!.8" female 20-39
Midgets or "dwarfs" have not only short stature but also different proportioned body parts!. Before you start thinking you are "different" realize you are not!. Be proud of not only who you are, but also what you are!.
I do a lot of business on the phone, most people that I meet in person later have always said "I thought you would have been taller" !.
Its all in how you feel about yourself!. Keep your head high, and smile, life is to short to worry about being short!
Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
