Question about future height?

Question

i know there's no for sure answer, but i'm just wondering about this. i'm almost 14, i'm 5'8" and going into 9th grade. my dad is 6'1", my brother is 6'4", my mom is 5'10", and my sister is 5'9". i play volleyball, and i'm on JV. we're a great team but we're all really short and i know varsity needs taller players. any hopes that i might hit at least 5'10"?

Answer 1

If you can find out how tall you were on your third birthday (or close to it) it's said that you will double in height when you are done growing. Hope that helps some.

Answer 2

I would be about 90% positive that you will be at least 5'10. Your mother is 5'10, not even considering your father, and girls usually get their height from their mother. Do you/did you have a tall grandmother? Sometimes it skips generations, too.

Answer 3

yeah there are hopes... u probably have a year or 2 left to grow so yeah...

Answer 4

Yes, I believe 5'10" is a reasonable expectation.

If nothing went wrong with your nutrition during the past 14 years, you should eventually get to your mom's level (the lower one of your parents), if not taller.

Most girls would be done growing taller by the age of 15, but boys stop growing around 20.

There are exceptions like me. I was "idle" in high school, and got taller in college (so was one of my high school classmates). Hopefully you could be one of "us" :)

Answer 5

possibly im 5"7 jv volleyball sophomore but i grew like 3 inches in 6 months so im assuming you will be at least 6"1 6"2 in a year or two
