Well, I've done my bit, Mick; one half Pinoy son is taller than me and the other plays prop for the local Under 11's ...

But I reckon it's diet, espescially when very young, that does the damage. Mothers come off breast feeding to get back to work early, and little toddlers don't get fed right because there is no money to get them what they need.

I'll go along with that Mick...its been noted by my wife's relatives back home how long our babies are compared to the ones being brought up there...our eldest boy of 14 months already taller than a cousin of 2 yo.
