Is anyone else here besides me still shorter than their dad as an adult? I'm 18 and 5'9", and my dad towers over me. I figure I can't be the only one who is experiencing this.

At 18, you still might have a bit of growing left in you so don't despair. But I'm shorter than my dad. I'm 5'6, he's 5'9.

I have grown taller since my 18th birthday so I believe I'm still growing. However, my dad is still taller then me, and I don't like it.

Yeah, I'm the shortest in my family. My dad towers over me too. It's embarrassing.

I'm 26 and 5'7''. Approximately 2 inches shorter than my Dad and brothers. And both my younger cousins dwarf me. Lol.

Not me because I'm the biggest & tallest in the family, but my 2 older brothers who are twins were about an inch or so shorter than my Dad. He was about 5'8” and they are about 5'7”. They're no longer shorter than my Dad because as he's gotten older, he's shrunk. I know one of the twins was self conscious about his size (or lack thereof). So not only did he have to deal with not being as tall as his Dad, he had to deal with his little brother being about 6” taller and 100 pounds heavier.

i sometimes wonder how my dad feels about his height, he is not short at all actually he is the tallest of his brothers, and he stands just about 5'11'' which is completely average here, and just a bit taller than the US average i hear. but he married into a tall family, my mom is 5'10'' and her little brother is 6'6''.
my brother turned out 6'5'' and i ended at 6'11'' so im a foot taller than my dad, but he seems fine about it :)
