Do your parents feel guilty and do you blame them...I am the mother of the 12-year-old girl whose growth plates are closed. She is only 4'7 and a half. I m also mad at her pediatrician for not warning me about precocious puberty. Sometimes I even regret marrying my husband who is only 5'6. I know I am just grieving, but I would do anything to take back time and to try hormonal therapy.
