I think you should openly share the information with your daughter, though if the bone-age is not reliable, then be sure to state that too.
If she is telling the other kids that her bparents were tall, then she must be feeling like she needs an explanation for being different, she might as well have your thoughts on it too.
My daughter is in 6th grade and is a bit of a Dolly Parton. She gets teased by the other kids and even overheard some parents telling their daughter that she stuffs her bra. She has had some very sad times about it. If it was last year she'd have still been at the age to just show everyone, but (luckily) she has reached the age of modesty (but also being very sensitive about it).
I wouldn't just recommend you not worry because the other kids will be catching up and then your daughter will be okay, the problem is now and the damage to her feelings will be done before the other kids catch up. I'd think your daughter would be relieved to hear another possible explanation.
