An exeptional online community I have come across for children and their families to both participate are medical online communities. One of the ones I have found to be interesting is ChildrenwithDiabetes.com. This is an online community for children with diabetes and their parents to communicate on. There are chat rooms, forums, a Diabetes Team and Care Suggestions. There is a calendar of upcoming events and conferences as well as the latest news on Type 1 Diabetes. This is such a great community for children to have, since the kids with Diabetes really need other kids out there like them to talk to, in dealing with a disease like this at such a young age. As well as the kids, this website makes it easier for parents as well to better assist their children with this type of situation.
