I stopped growing early too at the age of 12. until then I was the tallest in the class. I am 5 ft 4 inches and I am super happy about it because I am asian.

5'5" or thereabouts, but I was 27 before I reached that height. I think I have stopped growing but honestly haven't checked in a long time! I was always one of the shortest girls in my class (all girls' school) until about 11th grade, when I was more in the middle range. I rather liked being short and do not want any more height!

Both of my parents are average height as well; my mother is 5'4" and my father is 5'10". My brother, OTOH, is 6'4". Most of my mother's side is quite tall; only my mother, her cousin Liz, and I are under 5'7". The men are all 6' or over, so we figure that must be where my brother gets his height! My only biological cousin is female and 5'8". She has trouble finding pants that are long enough for her legs -- I would love to have that problem!

I'm 5'6". I'm the tallest woman in my family on both sides, by about an inch. We're of Southern European heritage, mostly.

Edited to add: tallest woman so far. My daughters are still young, and their father, at 6'1", is the runt of his family. His sister is 6'3" and their brother is 6'7". I could be eclipsed by my girls some day!

Haven't gotten measured in awhile, but I estimate between 5'7''-and-a-half to 5'8".

You always seem to look like you'd be somewhere in the mid-to-upper 5' in pics. (But then again, it's your face.)

I'm around 5'4". Which is actually taller than I expected. My dad is only 5'6" (we're Chinese) and so far I'm the tallest woman in the family. I never had a growth spurt and grew slowly until I was 18, then stopped growing taller. Didn't really grow wider until I was 37. Now at 39 I feel like a properly developed woman. :D

5'6 and a half.

My mum is 5'5", my dad 5'8" so I fall slap bang in the middle.

My brother, on the other hand, is like 6'2" or something ...

I wasn't sure what to click. I say I am 5'4", but I am technically 5'3.75". Anyway, I ended up selecting 5'0-5'3.

I was this height by the time I was 12. Haven't grown an inch since either grade 6 or grade 7 (whenever it was I actually reached this height--I just remember I was already there at some time during grade 7 when we measured me). I was the tallest in my class for years, and I thought I was going to be gigantic. Then I stopped at age 12, and everyone else kept on growing so I turned out to be on the shortside for my peers. Ironic....

Anyway, my Dad is 5'10" or so, and my Mom is 5'1", so I think I fell pretty nicely in between them. Personally I don't think there is a correlation between height and autism, but I could certainly be wrong about that.

I am 5'7"...and I wish I was 5'8" because I am in between. I am not short, and I am not tall....I hate having no clear definition. If I were 5'8"...I'd be tall. I think it is because I had a crapy sleeping schedule in junior high/high school. Plus the tallest I could have grown was 5'8"...seeing as my parents are 5'4" and 5'10".
