small boy
Hi you all!
I was wondering whether anyone here has some more experience about kids small for their age. I remarried and now have a 9th grade stepson.I also have a 5th grade daughter of my own. I especially worry about my stepson. He really is exceptionnally tiny and thin for a 9th grader. He's only 4'3 tall and light as a feather. My 5th grade daughter is 5'4 and strongly built. The difference between the two is truely dramatic, both in size and strength. My daughter may be tall for a 5th grader, but all her friends also tower over him. He'd be the smallest kid in her class! His size is mainly due genetics I guess. His dad (my hubby now) is half a head shorter than me and really thin. His mom didnt even reach five feet. I've also been thinking it would be good for him to get some muscles or take on some weight. However he hates any physical activity. He rather plays computer or video games. So what do you think? Do you have some ideas? It's not that I expect or want him to become a big strong guy or so. Can anyone relate to this? |
