[QUOTE="becca59, post: 1663755, member: 264425"] It is all part and parcel of growing up. Diabetic or not, it is normal. The diabetes just complicates the pushing of those borders. As he either is, or will be going to high school, parental control becomes more difficult. You mention he is a bright lad. It is time for the parents to sit round a table and talk with him, laying out their fears, showing acceptance that it is his condition and that they are willing to give him more control in managing it. But, that he must acknowledge that secret eating is not the way forward. Treats and correction are fine, but should be done openly (without censure) so that they don’t become illicit. [/QUOTE]
