My little brother just turned 14. he's 5'11 180 pounds and has a pretty noticeable beard after 2-3 days. mom is 5'6 dad is 6'3. will he get taller?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably yes: His genetic potential is add 6 inches to mom's height (which is 6 feet) and find half way point to dad's height so that is about 6'1'' or 6'2".
