Ninety-nine participants were recruited in the midsouth from a health science center and an affiliated diabetes camp. Warm and caring family behaviors predicted self-care behaviors and aspects of QoL for the participants.

Nursing implications included emphasizing open family communication and providing emotional support for diabetes management to promote developmentally appropriate levels of self-care and QoL.
