Myth 1: Children’s height is determined by genetics Genetics is a double-edged sword; children whose parents are short can grow tall; children whose parents are tall can also grow short. Experts point out: in the factors affecting the child’s height, genetics only accounts for 23%, through acquired intervention, girls can grow 14-20 cm more, boys can grow 6-24 cm more. Myth two, the size is not long is not the time Many parents think that children do not grow, is not the time, think that first let the child grow naturally, until the child themselves do not grow and then think of ways! But parents don’t know: when children don’t grow naturally, their epiphyses often begin to close and their height potential is already constrained. The chance of further treatment is already very slim!
