Aims: To assess the knowledge of off-springs of diabetic patients regarding, perceived risk of developing type II diabetes &possibilities of its prevention and behaviour of study participants to adopt healthy lifestyle for the prevention of diabetes was also explored. Study Design: Cross sectional study Place and Duration of Study: Department of Medicine, Shaikh Zayed Medical Complex, Lahore and Mayo Hospital Lahore from 1st February 2020 to 31st July 2020. Methodology:Two hundred and fifty individuals were enrolled. A face to face interview of all study participants was conducted and a questionnaire was filled. Results: There were 103(41.2%) had good knowledge regarding various aspects of diabetes, 120(48.0%) and 139(55.6%) had a good understanding of diabetes risk factors and prevention, respectively. It was shown that 74 (29.6%), had a high risk of getting diabetes in the future and only 112 (44.8%) of the individuals had strong diabetes preventive practices. A high score of preventive lifestyle was significantly associated with good level of knowledge of participants regarding diabetes (p=0.0165) and also with patients having great concern about their risk of getting diabetes in future (p=0.0052). Conclusions: People who have one or both parents with type 2 diabetes are typically aware that they have a higher chance of developing diabetes themselves. They, on the other hand, frequently underestimate the danger and have limited knowledge of potentially effective preventative interventions. If they are to decrease their risk of diabetes and its consequences, they need correct knowledge on it. Keywords: Offsprings of diabetics, Prevention of diabetes, Knowledge about diabetes
