ok so I am 14 and my whole life I have always been measured with my feet flat on a mechanical scale and have never ever seen or heard of any other kind of scale in my life. And it is the most accurate most reliable way to be measured. But I went to a hospital and all the nurse said was "put your heels all they way up against the scale" so I did but she didn't tell me anything else so I just had my heels and head touching the wall in which I made myself shorter and would make anyone by measured shorter but she should have seen that clearly I wasn't doing it properly and most children aren't gonna know that you have to have you're butt I didn't know and I am 14 and she didn't tell me to and back cause I later Googled when you have your heels all the way up against the scale you have to have to make sure you have your butt back too. but since I didn't have have my butt back she said "you are 5'3" when I was previously measured on a mechanical as 5'4" 3 times but I went home and put my heels and butt up against a wall and measured it as accurately as a could I get 5'5" but my mom said "I'm 5'3" and she's taller than me" and she is 51 and she has not shrunk cause she was just measured and the nurse said "well she's shrunk" and then the nurse said "5'6" in stilettos!?" when clearly I am 5'6" with my 1.5" flip flops and the nurse said "I'm 5'5" and I'm still taller than you even though you're wearing those" but I am 5'6" with those on but she had tennis shoes on so everything she said was bullshit
