My 16 year old daughter is still growing! About an inch in the last year alone. We were told she'd stop no later then two years after she started her period, well, that clock has rung, 2 fold already...
She has no problem being tall, but at 6'1" already and feet still growing too, she might not be so thrilled in a couple of years.
Is there a way to predict how tall she might end up?

Wow. Well, I don't know who told you that rubbish about not growing anymore 2 years after her periods begin? Wrong. Girls can grow until they are 19-20. It has nothing to do with periods.
Remind her that Uma Thurman is 6'1" and wears a size 13 shoe.

i am a doctor and i have had some problems from patients like that. there is no problem with ur daughter. what ur daughter might have is a very rare disease called phomietecolyhecrtides. only 800 people in the world have it. it is where they keep growing and growing. ur daughter should stop growing till she is 7 feet tall.
