162cm and growing

the journal of Michael Werneburg

My son's above the 98th percentile for height; I was hoping he'd avoid a lifetime of backache and poor shoe selection but no. At 162cm, this chart places him way up there. His seven-year-old sister is 123cm, and mercifully only at the 64th percentile.
