Summary

When a child or teen is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes it is a diagnosis with which the entire family has to cope. This video focuses on what parents can do to help their child. It examines the emotions parents have when their child has type 2 diabetes and recommends how parents can provide life lessons on making healthy lifestyle choices by being role models and by incorporating healthy behaviors into family life. It suggests parents stock cupboards with healthy foods, make physical activity a family effort, and help the child get education about healthy behavior for diabetes. These gradual changes in daily routine will not only help the child with type 2 diabetes but will help the entire family to be more healthy today and in the future. Teen patients featured in the video range in age from 11 to 18.
