Well, I am only 5 ' 1, so I'll pick short :). My DD and DS's are all
short, and they are all on meds. Let's put it this way. My DD is in the
6th grade and she always gets confused for a 3rd grader. She hates it,
and says kids pick on her and some say how cute she is. The Dr. just
told me that she'll put on some height and they put my DS's on meds to
make them hungry. Which does seem to work. If I find anything out more,
I'll fill you in. Nice meeting you! Keep in touch, sounds like we have
some things in common! :)
