Upset turned to anger today when my boss told me laughing that he blamed the parents for kids getting diabetes .... Too many sweets apparently ?? Knowing full well my 9 year old has type 1 . I wonder how many other people ''blame'' me for giving my daughter diabetes.i no it shouldnt bother me what people think but i feel i have to explain its a auto immune disease not my lack of care

What an a***hole. Are you sure he is qualified to be a boss.

He could appear on QI and get the hooter for "Knowing" everything.
