it depends on how well he controls his disease. Many diabetic men have become fathers, my sister's hubby for one. If the diabetic controls his disease by eating properly, getting adequate exercise and taking medications as prescribed, there is no reason he cannot live a completely normal life.

I have never heard of such a thing. Just because he has diabetes doesn't mean he can't have kids. There is a risk of passing it on to the next generation, but as for not being able to have kids that is a big fat LIE!

Your mother is incorrect. If in doubt go to the library.
