Why are most people so short nowadays?

Yea kids are getting taller but....most of the kids I work with are tiny or short. I work with 8-10 year old kids. The kids are pretty tiny. I saw their height chart and most are 3'11-4'3. TINY. The teachers I work with are all women. Three teachers. The three are 4'9-5'4" I'm the big one 5'10. I'm the tallest woman..... well female teacher in the school. There's a 13 year old girl that is 6ft. Anwyays is it just me or is it just because I'm tall? I was tall for an 9 yeat old. I was like...5'3 or 5'5.

Humans overall are taller than they were in previous centuries. I don't know that any trend can be discerned just by noticing the small sample of people around you.

Anyway, I'm 6'3" so I'm not one to talk...

5'10 is not huge at all, it's the beginning of tall actually. And tall is beautiful

5'5 is average for a women, and about 5'9 for a guy. genes have alot to do with it, but 5'10 is tall for a women, but not overly so

It's not just average height,5'5" for women and 5'9" for men but the range of heights from short to tall.

@EmotionalMotherlessWoman1988 I got that too.Most unusual to get a group of children all small.

Where are you though. Are you in a area where kids are not Northern European heritage ?

As a 5'7" tall man, I can verify that it's because we're just getting smarter.

I noticed this as well. It could be because I am tall but I am sure they are getting shorter.🤔
