Question
Does a parent’s height have a significant impact on their child’s future stature?
Answer
A child’s height is influenced by both parents’ genetics, typically falling within the range of their parents’ heights. Based on the parents’ heights, one can predict the child’s future height. For example, if the parents’ heights are 164cm and 166cm, the child’s height may be over 1 meter 70 (for boys) or over 1 meter 65 (for girls). Proper calcium intake and sufficient sunlight exposure during pregnancy and early childhood can aid in the child’s growth and development.
