what consequences do you see .?
Even if you can't control their choices ,you don't have to act against your
conscience .
I had a friend you died from diabete at age 20 . he loved too much couscous
and even after knowing about the danger of coma continued to eat it and died
.

If you are clear about your choices , your children will be less likelly
rebelling and even if at one point they will try it out , you will be at
peace with yourself and they will be less suceptible to diabete than if
introduced early.
