Detailed explanation-1: -If they are tall or short, then your own height is said to end up somewhere based on the average heights between your two parents. Genes aren’t the sole predictor of a person’s height. In some instances, a child might be much taller than their parents and other relatives.

Detailed explanation-2: -For an exceptionally tall man, his son will be around 4 inches (10cm) shorter than him. His son will still be taller than average. A 58-inch-tall (147cm-tall) man will have a 63.5-inch-tall (161cm-tall) son. For an exceptionally short man, his son will be around 5.5 inches (14cm) taller than him.
