Does achondroplasia skip a generation

Achondroplasia, a common form of dwarfism, does not typically skip generations. It is caused by a mutation in the FGFR3 gene and is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning only one copy of the mutated gene is necessary for the condition to manifest. While it can appear to skip generations if a parent with achondroplasia has children with a partner who does not carry the mutation, the condition itself does not inherently skip generations in the traditional sense.
