Is 5'8 tall for a 14 year old who has been 14 for 9 months????????

Question

is that considerd tall and is it possible that he will reach the height of his brother which is 6'1

Answer 1

Yes, you are tall for your age. There is a possibility that you could reach 6 ft. tall, but there's also the chance that you grew much faster than others at an early age and will quit growing soon. That's what happened to my cousin. She was 5'7 at 13, but she only grew an inch and a half more in the year after that and then stopped.

Answer 2

5'8'' is tall for a 14 year old but it's very common I know a lot of tall kids, and yes he might get as tall as his bother if not taller he still has a few more years to grow.

You are very tall to the average person and you might pass them up beings your so young :)

Answer 4

yes very tall and it is possible that he will reach 6'1. most guys grow even until 16.

Answer 5

if you're a dude-you will have another growth spurt that will probably coincide with another round of puberty(thickening of chest/jaw development etc) One of mine shot up at 13 to 6ft, his brother just hit 5'10 at 16...I'm so not worried, dad is 6ft and so is the uncle...chill out and enjoy being 14-if you are a chick thats probably it if you started your period, but 5"8 is cool for a girl(I've been that height for 22 of my 40 yrs)

Answer 6

yes and yes. My 13yo nephew was 5'09 at 13, he's now 16 and about6'03. My father is the only tall one in our family and he's 6'01

Answer 7

now a days im not so sure my boyfriend is 16 and he is like 6"2 so most likely he will grow taller
