Yes.
Diet and genetics, as well as childhood disease, all play a role in how tall a person is.
In addition, a child may seem to grow taller in adulthood than a parent because the parents can shrink with age. As you get older, "usually over 50," your body may loose height because of the loss of the cartilage between the vertebrae of the spine.

Can a son be taller than the father?
Yes, it is possible for a son to be taller than his father. Height is determined by a combination of genetic factors from both parents, so a son can inherit certain genes that make him taller than his father. Additionally, factors like nutrition, environment, and overall health can also contribute to differences in height between family members.

Why is my daughter taller than me?
Your height is a matter both of genetics and environment. Although your husband may be short, he may come from a family with tall people in it, whose genetic material may resurface in your son. Then there is your genetic material. If your family has tall people in it, their genetic material may be passed on to your son. Both of these would help your son be taller than his dad. And there is environment: there has been a steady increase in the average size of people in first and second world countries because of the improvement in diet. Clothing designed for an average woman 100 years ago is now too small to fit the average 13-year-old girl. Under these circumstances it is normal for a son to be taller than his father. (I am assuming here that your son is the biological son of your husband. There would be nothing remarkable about your son being bigger than your husband if your husband is a second marriage, or if the son is adopted.)

A father is 32 years old His son is 4 In how many years will the father be three times as old as his son What is the algerbraic equation for that?
The father is always 28 years older than his son so the equation can be written: (1) father = son + 28 at all times after birth at some point father is three times older than son so: (2) father = 3son So we can combine (1) and (2) equations as: 3son = son + 28 2son = 28 son = 14 so when the son is 14 the father is 28 years older which is 42 and 3 times older than 14.
