Oh I so wish that was around when I was younger. Mind you there was no home blood tests then.

Haha! I was just about to post that here myself Sue.

Very interesting to see it presented from a Teen's perspective. Could begin some very useful/fruitful conversations between a parent and young person.

Bit confusing that it starts with '7'. Looks like it is designed to be printed with page 2 back to back to that it makes a zig-zag fold.

Is it too late to give this to my mum? I'm 44

There are times when a 'like' button would come in handy!

Actually, this would be useful to give to anyone who tries to be too overprotective about someone else's diabetes 🙂

I like this! Unfortunately I think I am teetering on the brink of falling into some of these traps! Fortunately Hannah isn't officially a teenager until next April so I've got time to sort myself out and give my head a shake before then! 😉

just what I was thinking too (although I'm 31, does that make a difference?? 😉)

i'd love to get my mother on here so she could read what we actually have to go through and what is acceptable help and what is just plain cosseting - but she'll claim ignornance of how to use the site!!
