After the first test data were obtained from each parent in our research group, four face-to-face motivational interviews were conducted at two-week intervals. In the interviews, attempts were made to change and improve the behaviors and skills that parents felt inadequate within the scope of fear of hypoglycemia, caregiving, fatigue and self-compassion.
