My mom is around 5'7 and both of my uncles are above 6 ft i dont remember how tall my dad was since they got divorced a while ago when i was still a kid but i think he was also pretty tall, Im 14 and around 5'6 - 5'7 and im wondering if its just early puberty or if im gonna grow taller than 6 ft

you'll most likely hit just under 6' or 6' imo. but yes, no shit, height is mostly genetic so if people in ur family are tall you'll likely be tall

height is polygenic, so while inherited, it can pass down in strange ways. While tall family members do not guarantee height, it is a very strong predictor.
