If an individual is in the growth phase (childhood), milk might have a positive effect on growth indeed. Milk is a source of Calcium which responsible for formation of all bone structures. This might not affect though strong enough the growth in height but in width (bones). The nutritional factor is very important for growth though the most important role plays the inheritance of genes from parents. Intake of Calcium will help to achieve the genetic goal of growth though might not contribute to exceeding the limits which are already set.

In the elderly Calcium will be also rather preventing osteoporosis than making the individual grow taller.
