Is it normal that my mom is 9 cm taller than me? I am 175 cm, my mom is 184 cm. By the way, I am 22 years old.

How tall is your dad? Normally genetically speaking you should be between your parents heights. However it aldo depends on your nutrition and other environmental factors when you were growing up. Your mom is a tall lady by the way.

Of course it's normal. You don't have to be taller than your mom or both parents. Being shorter doesn't make you "Not Normal".
