just a note: reactions will always very, these are the same in all "Coming out" scenarios where what you are is considered by the awkward social morals we force upon ourselves as "wrong"
disapproval, there will always be someone who dissaproves, often it is someone who is not to close, unless your parents are jerks, they will talk out against you for it, put you down for it, attempt to do a little to make you feel bad for being a furry
ignorance- no im not talking about stupidity=ignorance, im talking about ignoring you, this often happens with PARENTS, you've just come out, you want some kind of reaction, you may get an "Uh-Hum" and thats it, nothing more, unfortunately if you push this kind of person, it often turns into disapproval
acknoledgement- while it isn't full on acceptance, this is ok, they acknowledge you are a furry, they don't dissaprove, they apparently don't want much to do with it, but the ywont hinder you, and they are not ignoring you
approval- the usual really good happening, the one you told, approves of it, probably thinks its cute, and supports you for being a furry!
involvement- this is rare, but it happens, sort of is happening to me, it happens when the person you told wants to become more involved into what you are or what you are doing,
for example my mother invited me to watch a part of hawaii five oh the other day because they where at a convention with furries (think it was sci fi con or comic con cause i saw wonderwoman, who, as far as i know, is not an often furrycon visitor) this could be anything as little as to what i just mentioned, as big as she wants to tow along on your conventions, to hang in the background at least, or as very big as, she's now going to become a furry, i dunno, if my mom came out as a furry, i'd think that was pretty awsome
