The case manager for two families with children who have type 2 diabetes is struck by the differences between the families
In one family, the parents are intentional about providing fruits and vegetables for their child to eat, regularly remind him to check his blood glucose level, and make sure that he engages in some sort of outdoor activity every afternoon. In the other family, the kitchen is stocked primarily with potato chips and processed snack foods, the child does not monitor her glucose level consistently, and she spends her afternoons texting or watching videos on the sofa. By this comparison, the case manager realizes how critical the family is in forming the attitude the child has toward caring for his or her own health.
