Answers:
Good for you! Taller people get more respect, are bothered less by bullies, and get better jobs! Get a good education. Your height could have come from your grandparents, or a distant uncle. Genetics is a funny business.
Cause your better than everyone else!
Because its hreditary from past realtives/ancestors
Take a close look at 'Uncle John'
because this is what you inherit from your parents!
Good gene makes good child!! =)
5'10" is well within the normal range. And sometimes, kids wind up a good knock taller than their parents--my older brother is 5'11", and my parents are only about 5'3".

Unless you experience rapid, uncontrollable, outrageous growth (like, you're 8 feet tall because you have a pituitary gland tumor or something), you're just...growing.

And yes, you probably will get taller. Most boys grow until they're around 18, some until they're about 20-21.
thats normal, u must have got it from ur mother's or father's side- ask urself Is my dad's/mom's brothers and sisters incredibly tall. Hey I'm 6 feet four inches and im the tallest in my family (yup taller than my parents). im 18 tho but still, i got my height from my mom's side of the fam. cuz my mom's brothers are tall like me. Hope this helps.
don't worry about it when i was 13 i was taller than my parents (dad-5'7", mom-5') I'm 15 and 6' its probably a recessive gene (you'll learn that in science) its normal I'm the tallest guy on both sides of my family and I'm the youngest cousin on my moms side and the second to youngest on my dad's its normal!
How tall is your mailman? I would be asking mom who my daddy is..lol
well because back then the food was not as healthy as it is today so therefore people get smarter, stronger and taller.
Its becauase your adopted, SURPRISE!
