"Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 4'10" or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.The average height of an adult with dwarfism is 4'0, but typical heights range from 2'8 to 4'8."
Dwarfism is for people under 4'10 whose body is not proportionate to their height. Such as being 4'3, 160 lbs, having average hands and feet, etc. "Midget", though not a politically correct term, refers to being short in stature but proportioned to one's height, such as being 4'8 and 80 lbs, having small hands and size 4 feet, etc.
Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 3'8" or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.
For the little people to be officially in record they are generally no taller at full adult hodd to only measuring no taller than 4"10

Midget midget midget midget midget.
I dont believe a person that height is considered a midget. I know a girl from work, and no one has ever reffered to her as being one. Maybe 4'8?
Sure
I can't tell you for a teenager, but when you are fully grown, if you are 4 11" or under, I believe you are considered a midget.
The term "midget" is considered outdated and offensive. Additionally, age is not determined by height or stature.
A midget is really small, so the biggest midget would be considered tall to other midgets. Just common sense.
Verne Troyer was a person of short stature, but the term "midget" is considered derogatory and offensive. It is more respectful to refer to someone as a person of short stature or as a little person.

The shortest living person is Junrey Balawing of the Philippines, whose height is 60 cm.. There were two people recorded as being shorter but they are no longer living and so Junrey is the shortest.
My search showed this info: The dwarf is a medical term for the person with an extremely short height of less than 147 cm ... Midget is a slang word used for a short person that suffers from proportionate dwarfism. Dwarfs suffer from disproportionality of body parts. Midgets only are short in height with all rest body parts in normal form.
If your adult height is below 4' 7" you will generally be considered a midget. A midget will usually have limbs in proportion to height rather than non-proportionally as seen in dwarfism.
