I'm just bored and wanted to know how tall people are in comparison to a close family member of the same sex.

i.e if your male, how tall are you in comparison to your dad or brother.
if your female, how tall are you in comparison to your mom(mum) or sister

I'm smaller than my dad

I'm 5 foot 5, about 165 cms.

Both my brother and my father are just a little below 5 foot 10--like 5 foot 9 3/4.

I'm the same height as my mom, 5'5", but we're the short ones in the family, with my brother at 6' and my dad at 6'3". His brothers are up at 6'5" with some cousins even taller. Even the women on that side of the family are at least 5'10". I feel incredibly small when I'm around them.
My mom's side, everyone is small, even the men. I think my grandpa was 5'10"

I'm 5' 6. My mother is around 5' 7, my sister is only 5' 3. My aunts are both around the same height as my mother I believe.

I'm the tallest female in my family, by FAR (5'11")----but, even the shortest of my sisters, is 5'7" (not too shabby). If I'm a "tree", my brothers / nephews are skyscrapers----not ONE is shorter than 6'3"!

5'7, but I'm not done growing yet. Apparently when I was real little the doctor said I'd be over six foot. My dad's like 5'10 or 5'11 and my mom's 5'6.
