Which is the priority concern of a 10-year-old child who was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes? 1 How much school might be missed 2 Whether the diabetes can be controlled 3 How the parents will react to the diagnosis 4 Whether having diabetes means future sterility

The parents' reaction may be of some concern, but not as much as school is.
