Is 5'11 too tall for a 12 year old girl?!


Question: Is 5'11 too tall for a 12 year old girl?
My sister is 12 years old and in the 7th grade. She is 5'11 and almost 6'0 and she is really tall for her grade and she is developed. My father is 5'8 and my mom is 5'2 so I don't know how she got to be so tall and I'm 18 and 5'4 so our family is not tall. Is 5'11 and almost 6'0 too tall for a 12 year old girl and will she grow to be taller?

Answers:

That's tall for a woman of any age, although some are even taller. Since she is only 12 it is possible she will get taller. There must be some tall genes in your family somewhere for her to be taller than your dad. I hope she will learn to love who she is no matter her height. There are lots of men out there who love a tall woman. Going thru puberty is tough and the boys will take much longer to catch up with her. Just love your sister and tell her you think she is beautiful.



If those measurements are correct...which I would double check, then she is extremely tall for her age. By the sounds of things she has already had her growth spurt and probably won't grow very much more.



that's incredibly tall for a twelve year old.
