Shorter.

Taller than my Mom and Shorter than my Dad. I blame my mother for not being taller than 5'4 (and a half!)
-
I am taller than my mother, she's 5'5". Not my father though, he's 6'3"!
-
I'm actually the same height as my father, 6'2".
-
Yes! Now my two boys are taller than me, and their little sister seems to be going the same way. Are our future generations going to be getting taller and taller I wonder?
-
No, not until they got older and started to shrink. Both my kids are taller than me-and I'm now starting to shrink.
-
taller than my mom
-
Yes, my mom is 5'0 & I'm 5'2. My father, I have no idea
-
Taller than Mom, but shorter than Dad
-
My mom is 5 foot 2 and 3/4 and I am 5 foot 3 and 3/4. My dad was about 5 foot 10.
-
Yes, but not by much.
-
I am taller than my mother, though that is not saying much, for she is 5"2', though I am either the same height as my dad, or just a bit taller.
-
I'm taller than my mom by quite a bit, though the numbers only indicate a few inches. She has a teeny tiny frame. My bones are a bit bigger than hers. She's 4'11" with a very small frame. I'm 5'2" with some slightly bigger bones, broader shoulders, and a longer body. Dad, on the other hand, is a bit taller than me. He's probably 5'4". His frame is just slightly bigger than mine.

Taller than my mother (5'6) but shorter than my dad (5'11 and 1/2)...I'm 5'9 (tall for a girl)
-
i'm taller than my mom but shorter than my dad...i think it'd be a little strange for me if i were taller than 6'1....but i'd be happier being somewhere around 5'7" or something lol
-
Yes. My parents are around 5'2" (mother) to 5"6 (father). I'm 5'10". I think it's the North American diet.
-
no mom was 5'4" and my Dad was 6' and well I'm just barely 5', I think I got shorted some how.....
-
At five feet, eleven and a half inches, I'm about half an inch shorter than my father was, and about five and a half inches taller than my mother was.
-
Granddad: 6′0″ Dad: 6′2″ Me: 5′10″, maybe even 5′9½″ My mother is 5′6″, and her mother was a little shorter than that, so it’s obvious that my sister got the “tall” genes; she’s essentially the same height as I, taller with even the slightest heel. (Of course, if you go back to my maternal grandmother’s dad, he was 6′2″ and the shortest of ten brothers!)
-
At eighteen, I'm still shorter than everyone in my family, even my little sister.
-
Im the same height as my mom. 5'6"
-
I'm about a half-inch taller than my father...
-
I'm the shortest in the family, but not a one of us is tall.
