Do you struggle with......

Body image issues....type?

My parents are tall. Pop 6'5"...my momma's 5'9".

My sister and I 6' even.

In part, the gender influenced nature of development; I was a fully developed 6' tall woman in the sixth grade.

A package for a 13 year old mindset to carry.

Folding myself in a desk ...in the back of a classroom.

Add to that wreckage the fact that ... oftentimes beside me ..is my exact double.

A societal circus attraction. Rarely would we mingle in the same space.

Becoming more an more comfortable in my skin ..baby steps...

If only I could rock high heels other than Halloween.

You were 6' by the 6th grade and stopped growing?

I'm 6'2", but didn't hit 6' until the 8th grade.

Well as adults, people should be used to it by now (assuming you are an adult) and your height is a great thing!

@sstronaut You might have hit puberty - and the associated growth spurts at a different age, though... girls tend to start puberty slightly earlier than boys - so you would've been playing catch up. 🤔🤔🤔
