?Tall ?: Your parents have the most influence on your final height.A simple height projection is calculated from theirs.Males are expected to reach the average of their parents height + 2.5 in.Which would be 5'11".The actual growth is determined by growth centers in your long bones.An x-ray of your wrist/hand can be assessed for bone maturity.If yours were like a 14 -16 yo you will grow taller, if 18, you a.
