a. "Sorry, Chris, but you've probably already reached your mature height. Just remember, many great men were short. Think of Napoleon!" b. "Don't worry Chris. Most boys don't reach their full height until they are 17. You've got about four more years to grow and you are likely to be of average height because you have a tall father and a short mother." c.

Most boys end up being taller than their mothers and fathers, so you will probably be over 6'2" before you stop growing."
