[QUOTE="Bigbluebox, post: 656842, member: 134473"] I done the exact same thing as your daughter when I was about 16-17 which was only about 3 years ago. For me personally it was about wanting to fit in and not being the odd one out having to test and inject all the time when out with friends. I do think having supportive friends helped me get over this, but honestly my parents were always commenting on it and it did help. It shows you care. Doing the choice course (adolescent version of Dapne I think) helped me get better control and made me not worry as much about doing the tests because I got to eat more stuff that I had always been told to avoid if I kept an eye on it more.
