| Hi HollyB, You're absolutely right on when you say, "he deals with this from the minute he wakes up until he crashes out for the night." That's something that will not change, so my feeling is, the sooner our kids learn how to manage without us, the easier it may be for them to cope with this later on. Please don't get me wrong, I love my son very much and there is nothing I won't help with. I guess I feel by allowing him to manage by himself he will be so much more self sufficient. I always think, what if?, unfortunately we don't know what life has in store for us, so I aim to get him all the diabetic knowledge I can, just in case, I cannot be there for him.
