[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 903875"] Lots of 19 year olds live away from home and maybe, just maybe she feels you need to take a step back and let her get on with it. As parents we worry all the time and she could be feeling that she will never be independent if you feel the need to police her and her diabetes. Teenagers can be secretive and decide to exclude their parents from their diabetes management as well as their social life. Why not wait in the wings and let her come to you when she needs help. This may sound harsh and I am sure you are a loving, caring mother. Have you read this? [URL]http://behavioraldiabetesinstitute.org/print-preview/BDITeenEtiquette.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
