Just because you are diabetic doesn't mean that your children will get diabetes. But certain factors do put children at higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes: having a family history of the condition, being obese, and being inactive.
Luckily, parents can help reduce their risk of type 2 diabetes by watching their weight. Getting into the habit of eating a healthy, balanced diet and exercising regularly can help prevent health problems later in life
