Hello. my son is 14 years old. he is currently 5 ft 1 but hasnt hit his growth spurt yet. i am 5ft 6 and my husband is 5ft 9. he barely has armpit hair and was wondering how tall he will be?

Basics: Male offspring are expected to grow as tall as the average of both parents height plus 2.5 in from genetic factors. That suggests his final height would be 5'10" plus or minus an inch. A better prediction would come from his growth chart & a bone maturity x-ray.
