Introduction

Height is a sensitive issue in our society. Studies show that Americans are very conscious of height. Some parents hope their children will become tall in order to be more successful in school, sports careers and non - athletic careers. But hope is not enough to help them grow. Most children grow about 2 inches a year between the ages of 3 and early adolescence, when sex hormones contribute to an even faster growth rate.

Most short children do not have a serious growth problem. Many grow at a normal rate and reach an adult height that is about the same as their parent's. A child's rate of growth is an important clue to the presence or absence of a growth problem. A child who is growing at a much slower than normal rate may have some medical problems regardless of his or her height. There are some diseases that can cause poor growth.

    Physical development is physical growth of the body. During childhood, physical growth includes gross motor, which are the big muscles, and fine motor, which help gain control of the body. Physical growth patterns start with gross motor development and then fine motor development occurs. At approximately one year old, a baby can walk by itself. By the age of three, a child has shown sufficient growth by sitting, walking, toilet training, using a spoon, scribbling, and sufficient hand-eye coordination to catch and throw a ball. Around age five a child’s fine motor skills are obvious and the child can perform actions like scribbling. From age five to approximately age 12, huge developments are not apparent and the child’s skills are simply refined.

Socioeconomic status is a big contributor to physical development because if the child’s parents do not have the money to provide essential food to the child, the child will not grow as tall as they could be (Eitzen, Zinn & Smith, 2011).…
