Huh?
"you are willing to arrogate to yourself the role of judge, jury, and executioner in deciding whether another human being is to bear the risk of suffering never-ending blood sugar swings, injecting himself five times a day, going blind, losing limbs, becoming paralyzed through neuropathy, suffering kidney failrue, heart attack, and stroke!"
That certainly doesn't happen to all diabetics and not all children of diabetics will have the disease. Again, my point is that you (collective) are placing yourselves on a moral pedestal and telling others how they should/shouldn't make extraordinarily personal decisions.
I can't speak for anyone else and frankly I don't know that you should either. I'm willing to bet people who are on this board are capable of making adult decisions.
