The purpose of the study was to explore a parent's sense of meaning in relation to the parenting of a child with type 1 diabetes.
A qualitative collective case study design was used and 10 interviews conducted with parents of children with type 1 diabetes. Recruitment took place through the Winnipeg Diabetes Education and Resource for Children and Adolescents and Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Categories were identified using qualitative content analysis.
Two major categories identified include being like everyone else and protecting the children.
Findings indicate that there is a need for greater diabetes education in schools. Diabetes educators can play a more proactive role in leading school based discussions with children, parents, and school staff.
