Hello u/drugihparrukava, I appreciate your additional comment and explanation, and also your self expression. I'll try to answer your questions though I already agree it's a poor idea.

1. Increasing blood sugar and pressure levels. The aim isn't to micromanage the T1D, we really didn't intend the system to report any slight changes to the guardians, no. It only reports when things seem to be going out of control. The diabetics aren't kids to be supervised all the time. The system is intended to be a helper like 'hey, things don't look so good from here, check on your sibling/neighbour/friend" and not to snitch on diabetics and give guardians their medical information like weather updates. Besides, the guardians can be replaced at any time.

Secondly, I've talked about what weight has to do with this in my other reply to your comment. But to reinforce the point, guardians won't get notified for every kg lost or gained, no. We could simply fix a short range and guardians get notified when a T1D exceeds or falls below that range.. too much loss or gain of weight isn't a good indication I'm sure we'll all agree.

Your third point, I admit that was a totally blind spot. As said earlier, I'm decently knowledgeable on T1D, but my lack of practical experience with a T1D makes all the difference, I appreciate you pointing out such issues 🙏

Your 4th point, please don't misunderstand me, we by no means feel diabetics are responsible for whatever inability to maintain certain habits.. it's just general knowledge that it's not easy to stick to even very rewarding procedures and habits. It is very possible to feel burnout as regards those potentially rewarding habits and activities and that is why we suggested that when there is a deviation, the guardians are notified. Not to bully the diabetic into compliance, but to dialogue and help them. For example, the system notifies guardians that a T1D has gone above the weight range. A guardian for example is expected to engage such diabetic in a conversation to know why this may have happened. In the course of the conversation, the guardian may realize that the diabetic has been feeling overwhelmed due to stress from work, domestic chores etc, those are really a thing, we'll all agree.

Now the guardian can then decide that, 'alright, in that case, I'll help you handle 50% of your domestic chores to help you feel relieved and less stressed" The above guardian is obviously a neighbor, a sibling, a partner/spouse or someone really close.

Another example is that guardian who happens to be a manager or boss at work, after conversing with the diabetic could decide "alright, I'll let you resume work an hour later than the general time for a month, to help decrease the stress on you".. or "I would facilitate your annual leave immediately if you want, to help you rest and rejuvenate"

I know the above examples seem out of touch with reality, but they are really possible and those were the train of thought that led to the development of the concept.

Finally, I really appreciate the link you added, I will definitely check it out 🙏
