[QUOTE="Odin004, post: 1486939, member: 406622"] From @[URL='http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/members/kellyb8511.94852/']kellyb8511[/URL]'s post, it seems to me that she's already checking her daughter's sugars - and I have to say, I can't agree that a diabetic mother checking her child for diabetes is the wrong thing to do - even if only once every 3 or 6 months; I wouldn't really call it "stabbing". Surely the mother's peace of mind derives from knowing that her child is healthy, especially as are so many undiagnosed diabetics out there.
