Nah, just a kid that hit his growth spurt early. My husband was 6 - 3 when he was 12 (6th grade) and was shaving every day. He was husky at about 200. The other kids caught up to him in time.

His mom and dad are actually kind of short--5.4 and 5.10, respectively

My 13-yr old son was 6-1 and 200 pounds. He was late for school last fall because he cut his lip shaving. He towered over everyone, and the other boys would run at him and grab onto his shoulders, one kid on each side. He would just keep walking and carry them across the soccer field. This year, thank God, the other boys are starting to catch up in size and heft. I am 5'5" and DH is 5'11". But an uncle is 6'5", 270#.
