Professor of Economics and International and Public Affairs, Emily Oster, wrote a piece for The Atlantic in which she explores the relationship between a child's height at age 2 and their adult height, "As it turns out, child height is predictive of adult height, generally speaking, particularly after the age of 2. And although it's crude, the 2 x 2 approach is not much worse than the best that scientists can offer."
