[QUOTE="Blondie153, post: 1473233, member: 49649"] Hi my 13 year old daughter was reluctant to have the libre as she already had a pump and didn't like the thought of another thing sticking out of her. We brought her to see another child who had one and they explained what they liked about it. She then agreed to give it a trial. She hasn't looked back. My daughter wears it during all sport and sprays cavillon on before she inserts. She wears adult sweatbands over them for some sport and likes how she matches them to her outfit! We test her when she is asleep and if she wakens she can test herself without even turning the light on. I asked her would she ever go back to finger pricking and she said no way. Although she does both for a few hours after putting new libre in. It may help if you ask your dsn if there is another boy using it that he could talk to. It sometimes works better that chatting to adults. Good luck [/QUOTE]
