How tall will I be?


Question:
I'm a 13 year old girl...
I'm 5'4...
90 pounds...
my mom is 5'6...
my dad is 6'1...

How tall?

PS: I'm not anorexic...I'm naturally skinny!

Answers:
You can be 5'6-5'9, I guess.
As long as you are eating healthy, you don't have to worry about your weight too much at this moment!
It's gorgeous to be a tall girl!
Say about 5'6". You'll look much taller since you are skinny.
wow! gain some weight because you are WAAAAAYYYY underweight! Your already a pretty good height. I wouldn't worry about it! You might want to start eating better.
One way the docs calculate this (it's called familial expected adult height) is a simple math formula.

For women

You take dad's height and subtract 5"
you add that to mom's height
then you divide by two.

So, in inches
(dad-5)+mom/2
(73-5) + 66 = 134 and 134/2 = 67" which is 5'7"

you can expect to be that height (barring any health problems or bad nutrition) plus or minus an inch or two. So I'd guess 5'6" - 5'8" and you'll reach that full height between 18-21 years old.

Happy growing!
