maybe I could've been taller if I was an avid milk drinker but now, I love drinking strawberry flavored milk... it's the perfect combo with a sandwich

Milk FTW. :D

I never really drank milk regularly, maybe I should have :confused:

Oh well, at least my hair adds a few inches of height :p

How can you possibly predict that?

The doctors measure your femur when you're born. They're actually pretty accurate, given proper nutrition levels. They told my parent's about 6' 4" for me, and guess what? I'm about 6' 4".

Link? From what I've heard they're notoriously inaccurate.

I always like milk and im 5'4 lol but that is because meh mum is 5'2 and my dad is 5'4 so my fate was set at my birth. Most of my other family members are short too with the few exeptions ex. Granny 5'8 and she has not gottan shorter and great grandpa was 6'1.
Milk = good
butter = only good for grilled cheese :p
cheese = FTW!

I drank milk like it was going out of style.... pretty much up until a few years ago (I'm 28 now). My son is the same way. He'd rather have a glass of milk than a cookie.

I'm 5'11". I don't know that it helped me grow any taller (though my dad was 5'9"), but it sure didn't hurt. When you're dying of thirst, nothing is better than a cold glass of milk.

i don't think not drinking milk affected your height.
