Hi
My 12 yr old daughter was diagnosed as T1 in early January (not a happy new year). She is incredibly angry, moody and tearful and I'm often the target of her anger which I just put up with. Not sure whether it is her hormones, entering her teenage years or reaction to her diagnosis (or combination of all). I've tried talking to her but to no avail she just says she's fine. I can understand her emotions and reaction to her diagnosis but just want to help. Anyone out there who has been through this as a parent?? Any pearls of wisdom? Thanks
