My boyfriend has diabetic genes(him and his father are diabetic)...My mother tells me that if I ever plan on having children with him, it would be selfish towards our kids on account that they might have diabetes also. Since its not a terminal illness, I didn't really stress it...But after a while it got me thinking...I see what his dad goes through (he had his leg below the knee and his right foot amputated) and it makes me wonder if having kids is worth the hardships they may go through as well. I don't know how to handle this. I know I'm still young but I know I want my own children some day. I love him so much and I know I would love to build a family with him some day.

Diabetes runs on both sides of my family. My father was diagnosed with it after me, my brother, and my sister was born. A person can live with it if they are eating the right things and (for my father's case) taking insulin when needed. Just because you're boyfriend has it doesn't mean his children will. Even though, the chances of them diagnosed later on is possibly. I don't know the statistics involving all of that, though.
