I was diagnosed T1 at the age of 63. So it took a long time. BTW, there were no other Diabetics T1 or T2 in any of the three generations before me.
Why are you a member of a FB group of parents with T1 children when your children do not have diabetes?
Why?It is just a matter of time.
Oh, excuse me, I didn't realize that a FACEBOOK GROUP verified the presence of a genetic predisposition to Type 1 diabetes. And more importantly, could you ask them to determine whether or not the Russians conspired with the Trump campaign to hack the US election in 2016? I'll give you Mr. Mueller's email address, he's the special prosecuter.
If there's no point debating it then why post it?There is no point debating it

The Joslin Centre in USA has information regarding the risks of the child of someone with type 1 diabetes also getting the disease:- http://www.joslin.org/info/genetics_and_diabetes.html
Regarding mothers with type 1, they say, "if the mother has type 1 diabetes and is age 25 or younger when the child is born, the risk is reduced to 1 in 25 (4 percent) and if the mother is over age 25, the risk drops to 1 in 100 — virtually the same as the average American."
If someone doesn't want to take anti-depressants, there is other help available:-

You can't do anything about the risk. You can do something about depression.That's right. However it doesn't look at how the odds stack when it has appeared in multiple generations. If it is in multiple generations risks become much higher as clearly it is genetic. Some types of diabetes carry a 50:50 genetic risk although whether that is us or not I don't know without genetic testing.
No, if there's a FACEBOOK GROUP dedicated to it then that proves there a genetic link. Especially if the people in the FB group might be their own grandpas. Now do me a favor and post the link fo the FB group dedicated to proving the Russians and Trump hacked the election. I"ll forward it to Mueller asap.

the stats in that link back up what people on this thread have been telling you. One child out of 25 of children born to a parent who has type 1 diabetes and is under 25 when giving birth MAY become a type 1 diabetic.
I think they should. Getting t1 is a total disaster and ruins your life. People should be advised if they are t1 you have a ridiculously high risk of passing the condition on (1 in 25) and then make a decision based on that.
No one gave me any advice on the risk and I'm very sad about it. If I'd known I absolutely would not have selfishly had children and put two more people on the planet with t1 genes.

Hi @ExtremelyW0rried ,They've identified the genes that carry an autoimmune risk (not specifically diabetes. Autoimmune genes cover other things too). Trial net specifically test people with first and second degree relatives who have t1 because they are. Ore at risk.
So I'm afraid you are wrong.
On a FB group I am on with parents who have t1 we worked out roughly one in ten of the children also have t1.
