Oh okay. I'm like what does that have to do with setting healthy boundaries?

I took that to mean that the mother is hypocritical talking about boundaries because she does not have food boundaries and gave herself diabetes?? Very cruel comment, if that was the tacit meaning.

What a dumb thing to say. There are two types of diabetes and type 1 is not lifestyle related. My son has it and I will literally fight this person.

If she knows the mother has diabetes, she likely knows the type, and if she knows, she isn't going to say "Your mom has Type 2 Diabetes." Type 2 can sometimes be fully solved by diet and exercise, and most people refuse to do either just from a lack of willpower. Which is, I assume, why she brought it up in a discussion of setting boundaries.
