I find controlling my diabetes is rather like driving my car: my
responsibility, including being responsible for my ‘passengers’.  
I can take criticism of my driving (and I think that’s rare, but heartily
dislike a back-street driver.  I like it when my husband compliments
me: ‘I wouldn’t have been able to park in that space’, ‘I think you’re
brilliant’ (when I was testing every hour during illness).

> Least favorite statement…

‘Niiice chocolate biscuit’ (said _very_ brightly, with a forced smile, just
before he snaps ‘eat it!’).
