Is it normal for a 14 year old male to be 6+ feet tall?
I don't know if it is, all my peers look like children.

Everyone grows differently ey.

Sometimes people go through their growth spurt earlier and faster than others.

I was 6' tall, and the tallest student in the whole school when I finished Grade 8. Ever since I've slowed down to a near halt. I've only grown a couple more inches over the next few years, and stopped altogether since.

Edit: for some context, due to my growth as a kid, it was thought that I was going to be 6' 7" for the longest time. Needless to say that didn't happen, and probably for the best. 6' 2" is a good height, tall enough to reap the benefits, but not enough to have any health problems or to stick out in crowds.

Same as above. People grow at different rates. At 6+ you will still probably wind up being taller than most of your class, but a few should catch up.

If you observe, you'll actually notice the average hieght of a later gen is taller than the gens previous to it, at least that's what I observed in my country. When I was in Highschool, most of us were taller than college students, same situation now that I'm in college. There's probably some paper about humans getting taller or something. I'd also think its be because of how dynamic our lifestyle is and the birth of supplements

@ 7~10 years old I was one of the shortest kids in school, by age 13 I stood at 6'3" and in our class photo I looked ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ridiculous. I was placed in the back row, dead centre and I towered over everyone.

Sadly however, this rather rapid growth resulted in a 30% spinal curvature.... and many, many, many moons on, I now only measure 5'10"

I hit 5'10" at 12, still 5'10" at 43.

People are just different, blame on the hormones and schitt in our food.
I’ve got a coworker who’s son is that tall at that age. I was pretty much always the tallest in class.
i was 10-foot tall when i was 6yo.

Yes, when I was 14 I was 6 foot, I only grew another inch though since I was 14.

It’s okay. It’s adnormal for a person like me to be 24 yo, 5’4, 117 pounds, and still look like a high schooler. #21JumpStreet
