It sucks being shorter than your dad especially when he grew up in a third world country, and you grew up in North America....really sucks lol

I've noticed most immigrant sons are much taller than their fathers. I dont realy understand why i wasnt an inch or two taller than him when he only ate meat three times a week and i ate meat three times a day :/ anyone have an idea?

Nothing unusual methinks.
Male relatives on fathers side are all greater than 175cm including the older ones, male relatives on mothers side are all below 170cm.

Quote from: Giveme3inch on February 06, 2016, 05:41:45 AMMay I ask why your mom's height decrease so much? Normally people lose their height by 2-3 cm when they get old, and 5-7cm when much older like 80+?
Sorry to ask this question, but I think its important to know because I dont want to lose the height I gained from LL when I reach age 50 or so.

Good question. I think it's probably imperfect health and a lack of activity. She has been having back problems for a while and doesn't really do anything about it. My advice if you don't want to lose height is to stay as active and healthy as you can, yoga, stretching, gymnastics, and so on.

Me:165,5
Father:157
Mother:167
Sister:159
Counsis (male): 176-181
Cousins (female): 160-165
Grandfather (father): 158
Granfmother (father): 155
Granfather (mother): 167
Grandmother (mother): 167

Average male height country: 173/4 (probably 176 in 20 years time)
Average female height country: 163

Youth are taller... Still one of the shortest average height in Europe. When i see erasmus students at my college I am like: wow this dudes are tall as f***.

Always use timberland boots or 1cm insoles on trainers that already have 0.5cm advantage to shoes like vans. That so I normally have an advantafe of 1 or 2 cm to normal shoes. Planing on doing 5cm on femurs and forget about my height neurosis.

What so you guys think on the difference between mom and dad!? Still happily married  How tall are you,parents,siblings?
