I'm 16 years of age and 5'6''~5'8''-ish. I can't really tell. I don't really trust those scales they have at doctor's offices. They come up with 5'6'', while other people say otherwise. Aside from that, I'm taller than some of my aunts, uncles, and various other family members. (I hold it over my sister sometimes, since she's short than me by a good amount, yet is 16 years ahead of me...)
@DM: O_O How do you do that? Drink milk? Get sleep? Ask God for intervention? Eat chicken?

I'm 13 years old and I'm 5,9 in height. I''m taller then my mom and my dad is 6,1. I like being tall, at least most of the time.

Around 4'8" or 4'9". I'm small enough to take on the alias "Shorty". T_T
Meh, then again I'm only 12. But I've grown like, an inch in two years.

ahh, that's okay. i was about 5'2" in eighth grade, and then i started to grow that summer...and now, four years later, i'm 5'8".

but my dad's a little over 6', so genetics certainly helped me. my 24-year-old sister is only about 5'3", though.

I believe she's going on the assumption that anything above 5 gets rounded up... which would make lots of people 5'10'', and others just plain 5'...
@DM: Clever. I never knew they had a formula for people... unless you're somekind of human-plant hybrid, which is unlikely...
Ah, forgot to mention... I'm primarily asian, so I have some height because of my father or my Spanish blood... Regardless, I'm thankful for that much...

Dangit. I always get the short end of the stick.
Either way, I'm short.
The rest of my family's somewhere between average and tall. I got gypped by genetics. -__- Well, at least I surpassed the shortest member of our family, a 5'3"-ish 27-year-old. Still...
