Hi hope all are good just a quick question if child having a alcohol drink tonight has gone to a party his mom doesn’t want to be a downer and said he can have a few drinks she siting at home worrying he said he ok how has people cope with 17(nearly 18 ) having a drink I think it good he gets out with his friends but just like to know other peoples experiences thankyou
 
Is it because your son is diabetic you are worrying or is he just a normal teenager who will no doubt learn by his mistake if he overdoes it. I would have a bucket ready just in case.
However old they are you never stop worrying.
 
Alcohol can cause hypos @Rac123 so he should make sure to have a carby snack before bed and keep hypo treatments near.
