A number of methods for height prediction relying on examinations of skeletal structure are often used by pediatricians, for example the Bayley-Pinneau [2] , the Roche-Wainer-Thissen RWT [3] and the Tanner-Whitehouse 3 method [4].
However, all these methods are subject to a wide range of error , at least partly because of the use of bone age estimations.
Determination of skeletal age is relatively subjective , with a high interobserver error rate, and the relationship of skeletal age to chronologic age has been shown to differ among various ethnic groups [1]. While methods for automated bone age determination were proposed in recent years, they still require a visit to the doctor, unlike the multiplicator method.
Most online height calculators tend to use the Khamis-Roche prediction equations [5] or estimations based on the height of the mid-parent. The Khamis-Roche method has slightly larger errors than those for the Roche-Wainer-Thissen method and it requires more data than our approach using multipliers.
Furthermore, the applicability of the Khamis-Roche method is limited to white American children only [5] , making it unsuitable for a height predictor intended for wider application. The mid-parent height method suffers from an issue wherein if parents are unusually tall or short, their children would be relatively less tall or short, respectively, and the mid-parental height is then a poor predictor of attained height [6] and would thus provide a poor answer to the question many adolescent boys and girls ask themselves: how tall will i grow up to be?
The single most significant factor affecting the adult height of a child is its genetics. However, a child may not reach its full genetically-determined height potential due to other factors at play, such as:. As noted, this calculator works best for healthy children without conditions with a pronounced effect on growth.
Make sure to consult a pediatrician to properly and fully assess your child's health condition and specific needs relative to their predicted adult height. Good nutrition being a widely shared strong predictor is the reason why worldwide average height levels for adults have increased significantly following the Industrial revolution.

May I say that is a more than healthy weight for your height? Honestly, I wish I could be bulkier, so please be proud of your wight, that I envy to obtain. You should focus on being a healthy eater. If you are getting your daily values of everything, there is nothing for you to worry about weight-wise.
Just make sure you stay safe. I turned 13 years old on 10th August. I grew around 8 inches in the past 2 years. Lately I have only grown 3 cm in 6 months. I want to know whether I will be as tall as my dad. Test results yielded different results.
Chances are you'll be around the same height as your parents. If one parent is tall and one short, then you're likely to end up somewhere in between. But you could be taller or shorter, too. Boy, there are a lot of "buts" when it comes to height! That's because your height is determined by your genes — the complicated code of instructions that you inherit from your parents.
Genes tell your body how to grow and determine lots of things, including how tall you are. But those genes don't make you an exact copy of your mom or dad. Kids only get some of the genes from each of their parents, and parents don't give the same bunch of their genes to each kid. If you have brothers and sisters, you know this is true. Brothers and sisters can look very different even though you have the same parents.
Even identical twins can end up being different heights! You're too short to ride the rides you want to ride at an amusement park. This one is upsetting. You're all ready to board the super-fast roller coaster and the ride operator says you're too small. Sometimes, you will be allowed to ride with an adult, so try to have one handy. You still have to use a booster seat in the car. Though you haven't used a car seat for a long time, older kids are supposed to use a booster seat until they are 4-feetinches tall.
The seats are meant to position the seat belt properly in case of a crash.
