Reported in the Telegraph13/01/08, parents of children who have type 1 diabetes felt the current advertising was not distinguishing between type 1 and type 2. "Parents of children with type 1 diabetes criticised the Government's 'complete ignorance' for fuelling bullying by fostering the misconception that the condition is caused by being overweight."
Children who are fat seem to be having a raw deal of it. With all the highlighting in the press these days will only fuel bullying. We know there is a problem, but surely this needs to be handled in a more sensitive manner.
