[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2308102, member: 101136"] Hi [USER=530516]@SD5390[/USER] , Welcome to the forum. The teens?!! There's a fair bit of self consciousness going on at that age.. Family dynamics change when diagnosed, it almost seems to centre round the matriarch. (I had sisters who were embarasingly over protective at the time, too.) As a kid? Some of these clinics, HCP & the overal "rehab" vibe, can leave you feeling,"I may as well have stolen a car." There a differing thought processes happening & it's appreciated you need to be certain your daughter isn't omitting insulin. However, for some. Injecting is a personal affair. It can take a while to "come out" with it.. When yer "the only D in the village," it takes some confidence building.. I appreciate the COVID thing right now. Is there a local child T1 group your daughter could talk to.? (Maybe online?) Supervised, (online safety.) but video what's app chat room stuff with T1s her own age? [/QUOTE]
