To answer it.. at least the only way I know how... I would say that a lot of parents don't know. But, there are plenty that do know. Some may not agree with what their children are doing and others may not care. But, either way when it comes to what someone does when they are an adult.. it's really noone else's business but, their own. I'm not saying you shouldn't ask this question.. I'm just saying that what anyone does once they are of age is really not up to the parents. I'm sure it must be hard but, the most they can do is offer advice or support in some way. That is if they don't want to push their kids away. There are plenty of parents that know what their daughters and sons do.. that are fine with it. And, some that may not be fine with it.. but, at least are still there for them if they are needed.
As for me.. my real dad knows.. and my father-in-law knows.. as well as a few other members of the family. Since I've only known my real dad for a few years.. his opinion isn't extremely important to me. But, he told me when I met him to never let anyone tell me what I could or couldn't do no matter what it was. I'd say he was supportive.. but, I'm really not sure it matters to him.
As for my father-in-law.. he really cares about us.. me and Eric. He cares about our health and our marriage. He wants us to be careful and take care of one another. That is what matters to him. He has said it's none of his business.. but, he lets us know he's there for us if we want to talk or share. And, he's always appreciative when we do. He just wants to know that we are ok. Eric and I may not do the degrading things.. or some of the more disgusting things.. but, regardless.. we still have people that care about us.. and don't judge us for what we do. That is what is important. At least for us. So, in answer to your question at least on my side.. no.. they haven't gone crazy killing people in the streets.. or anything else quite remarkable. They've just showed concern for our welfare. I'd say we are lucky.
