As the title suggests, Do your parents know your do stuff on the web etc. for you domainers and coders like me.

My parents do and they support me in doing it.

My parents are sometimes shocked at the deals I can make, but otherwise remain fairly oblivious.

I don't think that my parents believe my ability to make money off the internet - all deals I have made have been for free - since I can't set up a paypal account at the moment. They know that I'm good on a computer - whether they understand what I do, well tehy don't ask.

My dad never used to support it until he really understood the real potential of internet. He supported me when my first google check came. He was shocked but after that shock, he started supporting me. He now recommends me and gets me business. He even know my portfolio links.

My Mom is most supportive although she knows nothing about what I do.

My parents know what I do, but don't think I can do it. They have never seen any of the money that I make since it goes to paypal and then I spend it to make some more (or not). I would like to save up some and then buy something nice and have it delivered. That would be nice to see the look on their face!

lol the same here

both my parents know that I work online, but they don't understand what a domain and etc is. So they know what I do, they just don't understand what I do.

My parents sorta know. Like, I use their credit cards to buy domains but they don't understand. I have to call them ".coms" So it's like a yes/no situation.
