SUBJECT:

Twice the Height at Two?

When I was growing up, my mom and my aunt said that the height that a child will reach as an adult is about twice the height that child is at two years old.

It worked for me. And it was close for my daughter. I'm wondering if anyone else has heard this -- and whether it's held for them, too.
