Boundaries around diabetes are tricky but necessary. Be it family, friends, medical providers, or complete strangers, establishing healthy, sustainable boundaries is hard. Liz and Amy are joined by clinical psychologist Dr Mike Fulop to talk about what makes self-efficacy so challenging and the components of healthy communication (nothing productive happens in the heat of the moment, avoid using absolute words like “never” and always”) for young, old, and every diabetic in-between. For parents of diabetic kids, we talk about the struggle between encouraging diabetes management and good control, and teaching self-management and empowerment. Facilitative Parenting is a powerful thing. Shaming and scaring techniques never work (regardless of who they’re coming from!), and interactions conveying love and acceptance without undermining a person’s sense of freedom and autonomy predicts good diabetes-management across the life span. This episode is for everyone who has a diabetic in their life.Tweet us at @diacastEmail us at [email protected] feel free to join the wonderful diabetes communities on Reddit and Discord.r/diabetes subreddit:https://www.reddit.com/r/diabetes/r/Diabetes discord:discord.gg/diabetesPatreonhttps://patreon.com/diacastLinksDiabetes Etiquette Card https://behavioraldiabetes.org/product/diabetes-etiquette-card-for-people-who-dont-have-diabetes/Diabetes Etiquette Card for Parents of Teens https://behavioraldiabetes.org/product/teen-etiquette-card-diabetes-etiquette-for-parents-of-teens/Behavioral Diabetes Institute https://behavioraldiabetes.org/Social Determinants of Health and Diabetes: A Scientific Review Felicia Hill-Briggs; Nancy E.
