Do you think I will still grow: Im 18 years old, almost 19, im 6'2" and a half. My parents are both tall (dad is 6'2" and mom is 5'9"). I didnt start growing until I was about 16-17. You think I could be couple of inches taller?

i grew an additional of a half inch with each of my pregnancies and i was in my twenties. not that youll have to worry about that. but its not impossible to grow past the age of 18. youll probably be a little taller than dad.

I'm assuming that you are a male by the avatar, so I apologize if you aren't. Men will continue to grow usually until they are 21 or so. You can tell when a male is done growing by checking with your doc. The can do an x-ray to see if the two bones down near the ankle of your foot have finally fused. If they are still separate, you've still got some growing to do. They'll be able to give you the correct medical terms for the bones and the process. Now, just looking at the height of your mom and dad, also look at their mom and dads, and I bet you'll see that you are pretty doggone close to done if not totally done. Maybe one or two inches more, but I don't think you have like 6 more to go before you're done.
Hope this helps

maybe, but it all doesnt matter with what your parents are, i mean if your parents have two ressessive/domonate alleles than geneticaly you would could be short or tall, but im not sure which is which.
