should be able to eat what ever he wants because he has to inject insulin anyway. I argue that he should avoid sugars and carbs to limit his insulin intake. We have a very good diet, we are not over weight and we excercise. Does anyone have an opinion.

All diabetics have to watch their diets. No matter what type of diabetes they have. No, it is not wise to eat what you want or as much as you want and then use more insulin. This is poor control and can lead to weight gain and other problems. I had this problem with my daughter when she was in school. Peer pressure was awful. We went to a nutritionist and put the subject to rest. She set my daughter straight. We also went to diabetic ed. classes together, and we both learned at the same time. This is something you need to do with your son. Don’t let him mess up his diet, he needs to learn to eat the right foods. You won’t be around all the time to feed him. Eating more, or eating something "forbidden" is fine once in awhile. Drs will tell you to go ahead, eat a small portion of what ever it is you crave. This helps most people to stick to their diets. But the daily eating of more carbs and sugar than you should and covering with more insulin is definitely not the way to good control. You are right. Set your son straight. Eating more carbs and sugars will only increase the amount of insulin that he needs, and this is not what control is all about. It is about eating a good diet and using as little insulin as possible to control the disease.
