My husband (from Sweden) was telling me that his grandma had diabetes. He told me she didn't get it from being fat or eating like shit, she just got it from being old. He told me she just altered her diet and controls it that way. I had to explain to him it was type 2 and he kept arguing with me. His grandma is incredibly slim, walks her dog 2-3xs a day, active, etc. But I had to explain to him that it was only called adult onset because it was rarely seen in children. He had no idea there was just 1 and 2. He thought there was a separate one that older people developed. He then was disgusted that people are getting it younger and younger and didn't want to talk about it anymore.
