My sisters come in at 5'4" each and my mother 5'6" where as my father and I are both 5'7". Also, does age a person begins to wither factor into this? My mothers father is as tall as he ever was and he is 89 but my father at age 58 is now beginning to shrink already. A recent back to back measurement left him disappointed at his lacking height. Another factor to consider is my grandfathers bar tending job compared to my fathers very strenuous elevator construction job. More research needed!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00010620771314568417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360356351594869925.post-52198624843747423272016-02-15T16:18:32.845-05:002016-02-15T16:18:32.845-05:00This is very interesting.

My parents and I have always thought the height skipped a generaion (my grandpa is tall). Though, this is very interesting to see that parent's height greatly influences height of offspring.
