When a character spends a long time trying to think up a proper explanation/excuse/lie to tell his parents, he expects them either to be floored or to completely misunderstand. When he finally does, the parents already know about it and wonder what the big deal is. Occasionally, the person almost lied about shows up at the house with his own explanation, omitting certain truths. Sometimes the parents actually knew a lot more than they were letting on. Or they genuinely just accept it with frightening ease, telling us they're pretty cool (if weird) people. Due to their overly receptive behavior and their innate parental philosophy to let their kids be themselves without too many rules to constrict them, they are often portrayed as Good Parents. They're not necessarily Hippie Parents, although being open-minded about their kids is a possible trait of Hippie Parents. Compare Hippie Parents, Teasing Parent, Doting Parent, Milholland Relationship Moment, Reasonable Authority Figure. Contrast Fantasy-Forbidding Parent, Helicopter Parents, Love-Obstructing Parents. |

The Fujiwara couple in Natsume's Book of Friends are fairly reasonable when their foster son Natsume often shows up disheveled and in situations that he cannot fully explain to them. They are unaware of his spiritual abilities but are supportive and understanding regardless. One noteworthy example was Shigeru coming across a room that Natsume wrecked due to an exorcism spell to get rid of an evil spirit haunting the house. Since he had seen something like this before in the past, he knew Natsume didn't purposely destroy the room. | |

In Kanon, Nayuki's mother Akiko approves of the presence of any haremettes in her home, much to Yuuichi's initial disbelief. The 2006 anime adds some light implications that she knows about the Mundane Fantastic nature of the world and the girls and realizes that they need her support and his. | |

When after a friendly question Liam admits that he's indeed Milo's boyfriend, Dylan doesn't even bat an eye and instead invites Liam to stay for breakfast. | |

Entre Nous (2021): Elodie's stepfather Roity is wholly accepting of her being a lesbian. He even encourages her to have a child with her fiancée Laetitia. She's very grateful for him, as many LGBT+ people (including Laetitia) don't have a straight relative like this supporting them in their lives. | |

Digimon: In Digimon Data Squad, Daimon Sayuri was perfectly all right with her son bringing home a small dinosaur Digimon, calling him "Agu-chan" and scolding Masaru for fussing when he took the last of the fried eggs. She comes across as kind, but rather simple-minded, until she reveals that she knew about DATS and Digimon all along, as that was why Masaru's Disappeared Dad Suguru... well, disappeared. She had accepted long ago that Masaru would follow in his father's footsteps, and so was utterly unsurprised. Back in the original Digimon, Izzy's parents take well to Tentomon once they're introduced, and his mother even jumps into linking Cupid to a Digital World prophecy despite not knowing the Digital World existed until recently. The trope is oddly Inverted when Izzy himself finds out his parents' long-kept secret that he's adopted, and reveals he'd suspected it already, still loves them and considers them very much his real parents. Digimon Tamers: Ruki's grandmother was not the least bit surprised about Renamon; apparently she just assumed that she had picked up a kitsune fox spirit protector. Takato's parents are quite okay with Guilmon's presence. Mrs. Matsuda is more apprehensive, but not reaching the other extreme. |

Zig-zagged on Gilmore Girls. Lorelai tries for this trope, even saying in the pilot that she tries to run her home as a democracy and pull the "Mom" card as little as possible. However, as the series goes on, she proves that she and her mother (very much the opposite of this trope) are not so different from each other, when Rory goes off to Yale and cracks under the pressure, veering from the carefully cultivated path Lorelai has guided her on for her entire life. Lorelai freaks out and this causes a months-long estrangement between her and Rory. | |

Arrow: Quentin Lance's reaction to finding out that one of his daughters is a trained assassin is worry and concern for her safety. Then he finds out the same daughter is bisexual and his only thought is that he's glad she managed to find some measure of happiness in five years of pain and death. In a similar example to the Spider-Man example above, Oliver's mother Moira reveals that she's both well aware that he is the Arrow, and is incredibly proud of him for it. What makes this especially open-minded is that Oliver, in his 'Hood' persona, had previously held Moira at bow-point for her links to The List. In a final season episode, William along with his half-sister Mia gets brought back to meet his father as Oliver is working towards the Crisis crossover. He takes Oliver aside and comes out to him, nervous that his dad will be upset. Oliver indicates to him that both he and his wife Felicity had suspected before William left to live with his mother's parents. |

Despite the name, he is a very supportive father through his son's rehab and after that, ultimately during Jack's graduation even telling him to "go really say goodbye" to Bittle, whom he was in love with. He seems to be the only one to play it straight, though as Bittle's father is implied to be very conservative, and Shitty and his family do not agree on most ideas. | |

Richard Castle is one of these towards his daughter Alexis. Amusingly, Alexis is in any case actually far more mature and grounded than her father ever was, and perhaps even over-responsible (on more than one occasion, he actually tries to push her into doing something crazy and irresponsible, believing she's spending the best years of her life wound a little too tight). | |

Lyrical Nanoha When the time came for Nanoha to explain to her family that she's a mage and how she plans to officially join the Time-Space Administration Bureau, the only one who appeared even remotely shocked upon finding out that magic and different dimensions existed was Nanoha's sister, Miyuki. This might have more to do with the ferret she's been adoring as a pet turns out to be a guy. Even before that, during the first season, Nanoha has to join the TSAB for a few days to help out in their investigation, which necessitates missing school and staying onboard the Cool Ship rather than at her house. What exactly did she tell her parents she was doing during this time? Well, no one's really surenote she says she explained the situation, but without mentioning magic... which really doesn't leave very much left to explain, but whatever she told them, it was enough for them to allow their nine-year-old girl to run around with people they've never met for a few days. This can be explained if one is familiar with the source material, where her father and older siblings are all ninja bodyguards who take on entire terrorist organizations by themselves. Not letting her run off on a potentially life-threatening mission would be downright hypocritical. This also applies to Nanoha when she becomes a parent herself as she allows her daughter Vivio to pursue any hobby she wants to have (which happens to be magical martial arts) and is fully supportive of her daughter's choice, even providing training sessions for her if she ever asks. |

Sherman Hollis from Carmilla the Series is this to his daughter, Laura, despite his insane overprotective nature. He's completely fine with Laura being a lesbian, his issues with her dating Carmilla having more to do with the fact that Carmilla's an undead bloodsucker of ambiguous morality than with the fact that Carmilla's a girl. Even that, he gets over eventually. He's also immediately accepting of LaFontaine, Laura's friend who's non-binary, and makes an immediate effort to correct himself when he accidentally misgenders them. | |

When her Sitcom Arch-Nemesis stole her robot design, her dad asked her "You're gonna take that bitch down right?", and when Gaige's robot accidentally gibbed said Sitcom Arch-Nemesis, her dad helped her off-world by distracting the police with a gas tank and a golf cart. The only thing he wasn't cool with was when Gaige cut her arm off and built a robotic replacement, but even then he seemed to get over it pretty fast. | |

I Think Our Son Is Gay: The series viewpoint character is Tomoko, a housewife who suspects her teenage son Hiroki is probably gay. Her narration makes it perfectly clear that she's fine with this, even finding Hiroki's flustered reactions to various close calls cute. The only reason she doesn't tell Hiroki she knows is she is willing to wait for him to come out to her himself. In the meantime, she offers what support she can, such as running interference when her husband, who has no clue about his son's sexuality, makes Innocently Insensitive remarks about homosexuals. | |

Carlos Reyes' parents are a downplayed version of this, from what we know in 9-1-1: Lone Star. After he came out to them as a teenager, they reacted with seeming support, telling him they loved him… and never broached the subject again for years, which made Carlos think they hadn’t meant what they said. While his father is the first to give his support for TK and Carlos’ relationship in season 2, Carlos’ mother in season 4 admits that not knowing how to talk about her son’s homosexuality during that time was “the greatest regret of her life�. | |

Tenchi Muyo!: Tenchi's grandfather very quickly accepted a whole flock of strangers moving into his house, although this was related to his secret identity, too. Rather the house belongs to Tenchi's father Nobuyuki, but then he probably likes the idea being surrounded by pretty women. And of course he's really aware of everything. Nobuyuki is also fairly open-minded regarding his son, too. When Nobuyuki sees Ryoko in Tenchi's room, he assumes that Tenchi snuck Ryoko in to sleep with her. Nobuyuki says that, as Tenchi's father, he should respect his son's privacy, and leaves them alone. Not that it stops him from trying to videotape it from outside "for posterity". |

In Yandere Simulator, Yan-chan's mother plays this straight. She will be completely supportive of her daughter if she finds a female partner. Her father downplays this; he initially subscribes to the Japanese cultural belief that homosexuality is bad, but will eventually come around after mulling it over for a bit and realizing this pairing will bring an end to the psychotic Aishi bloodline that has been abducting men and forcing them into marriage for generations. | |

Ugly Betty: Justin worries about coming out as gay to his Hispanic Catholic family, but all of them are supportive once they find out — too supportive, in fact. Marc has to warn them not to throw a surprise coming-out party for Justin, and instead let him come out when he's ready to. | |

Calvin and Hobbes: Calvin's parents turn out to be an example of this when he wrecks the car and runs away. Apparently when the kid takes a saw to the coffee table you're allowed to blow your top but when he puts himself in genuine danger, you have bigger things to worry about. After a visiting relative leaves some cigarettes where Calvin can find them, Mom tells him that if he's going to smoke, he should do it outside. She expects, rightly, that he'll hate the experience and never try it again. |

Her father Falcon tells the whole student body that they should always try to make an original contribution to the world even if they intend to do it by becoming a supervillain. Neither is at all put off by their daughter's gender bent boyfriend. It turns out there's good reason for this, as Tabby Cat herself is a gender bent would-be supervillain. | |

While Hank is certainly not this on King of the Hill, an episode called "The Peggy Horror Picture Show" introduced a drag queen named Caroline who becomes friends with Peggy. Caroline's mother is nothing but supportive of Caroline. In fact, her second line of dialog in the show was "Don't apologize for yourself not now or ever!" Although Caroline was just apologizing for being late. At one point, Caroline has to tell her mother to stop being supportive (i.e. shut up and listen to Caroline's complaints.) | |

In Nyaruko: Crawling with Love!, Mahiro finds out that his mother Yoriko is coming home early and worries about her finding out about his Pretty Freeloaders Nyarko and Cuko, partly because he's afraid she'll think he's the type of son who brings girls home when his parents are away, but mostly because they're Eldritch Abominations straight out of the Cthulhu Mythos. When Yoriko does show up, she's fully aware of what they are because she's a part-time monster hunter and god-slayer (something Mahiro didn't know about) and is completely fine with them staying under her roof as long as they don't cause too much trouble or hurt her Hiro-kun. Later on, she declares that she's perfectly fine with Nyarko romantically pursuing Mahiro, but encourages her to take it slow, because "high schoolers should have a high school romance."Of course, Yoriko's initial reaction to hearing the names "Nyarlathotep" and "Cthuguha" is to pull out throwing forks and tell Mahiro to get away from them; after being convinced that they have no intention of hurting him (an impression aided by Nyarko's adorable pet shantak-bird), she softens and decides they can stay. Even THAT reaction is a sign that she's completely accepted the bizarre nature of the situation and is willing to go all Mama Bear on an Eldritch Abomination or two if that's what it takes to protect her son. | |

Kagome's mom, grandpa, and brother are all very accepting of Kagome's time-traveling to fight demons in the feudal era in Inuyasha. They seemingly think it's better to accept and support Kagome's unavoidable destiny - Mrs. Higurashi is Genre Savvy enough to even buy presents for the rest of the group. They also don't have a problem with Inuyasha and notice early on that she has feelings for him. When her brother asks Inuyasha for romantic advice, he was shocked to learn that they had never told each other they were in love. | |

Most of the characters in Homestuck have parents/guardians who are not only fairly accepting of whatever they're up to but seem to be actively preparing them for it. This may have something to do with the Mobius Double Reacharound nature of the timeline(s) there... or, put another way, it's heavily suggested that the guardians know about SBURB and the adventure the kids will be going on, as well as the fact that it's inevitable, so they don't bother trying to stop them. | |

Attachment: Lev tells Maja Chana's issues with her and Leah don't stem from their being lesbians. He doesn't care about it either, despite both him and Chana being Orthodox Jews. This appears to be true, since while Chana often nags Leah about things, she never mentions her sexuality as a problem, though it's hardly a secret (they're sharing a bed, while Chana's walked in before when they had sex). Leah never mentions this explicitly though, with her only telling Maja her mom's aware of her being with women. | |

The Order of the Stick: Subverted with Tarquin. Sure, he absolutely LOVES the fact that his son is a hero determined to take down villains like him because it makes for a much more entertaining story (and he can exploit it to his advantage). Despite their differences, he's glad his son is doing something awesome with his life and has a hot girlfriend (to the point of hitting on his future daughter-in-law)... However, Tarquin is also a Politically Incorrect Villain who assumed that his son was The Leader of his party based solely upon the fact that he was the only white, human male on the team, qualifying Tarquin as a racist, a Fantastic Racist and a sexist all at once. He also once referred to genderqueer elf Vaarsuvius as an "it" and attempted to frame Ian Starshine for murder simply because he had dared speak to Tarquin as if the two of them were equals... The final nail in the coffin for Tarquin's open-minded parent-ness came when it was revealed that he is not okay with his son being perfectly content in his role as Plucky Comic Relief rather than the main character role that Tarquin wants to force upon him. | |

He encourages Mei to do her own stuff and accepts her choices, especially whether she wants to go through the red panda spirit ritual or not. To a lesser extent, Miriam's parents give her permission to go to the 4*Town concert, as long as she uses her own money. |

As for Youko's parents, her mother was a Shipper on Deck from the beginning, and while her father was a Boyfriend-Blocking Dad for a while, Asahi won him over with his honest and heartfelt devotion to Youko, and when he's told about the pregnancy he's perfectly calm and understanding. | |

Johnny and Moira Rose from Schitt's Creek range from neglectful to overly supportive when it comes to their adult children. Johnny does seem a little uncomfortable when it comes to Alexis's past teenage adventures, but he is non-judgemental in the present. He also tells his pansexual son that he supports all his sexual encounters regardless of gender. Moira gives her daughter advice on seducing men, and she's downright impressed when a hot, towel-clad man comes out of her son's bathroom. | |

In the third season of The Owl House, Luz officially comes out as bisexual to her mother Camila and introduces her girlfriend, Amity. Camila instantly gives them both a hug, begins wearing a rainbow heart pin in support of her daughter, and background assets show that she educates herself on how to better raise LGBTQ children. On the fantastical side of things, she let the basilisk Vee stay with her in Season 2 when she realized how much danger Vee would be in otherwise. When Gus, Willow, Amity, and Hunter end up stranded on Earth, she opens her home and heart to them, doing her best to understand their needs, magic, and culture. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Katara and Sokka are 14 and 15 at the start of the original series. Their mother, Kya, was killed by the Fire Nation 5 years prior, and their father, Hakoda, is off at war, so it is their grandmother, Kanna, who calmly wishes the kids well when they head off on a planet-spanning quest to aid the long-missing Avatar Aang in mastering his powers and help bring down the Evil Overlord. What people forget is that the Avatar world is still basically medieval: 14- and 15-year-olds are young adults, not children. Further, when their father learns of it, he congratulates them on choosing to travel with Aang instead of him. In fact, he encourages it, seeing as they've already made a huge difference to the shape of the world and should be as well protected as they would be at home considering they're hanging out with a twelve-year-old Physical God. As shown in a comic for The Legend of Korra, Avatar Korra's parents Tonraq and Senna are fully supportive of their daughter's romantic relationship with Asami Sato — while they're obviously a little surprised upon first learning of it, they're very happy for the two, even going so far as to treat Asami like a second daughter. However, Korra's parents do make a point of warning her and Asami that not everyone may be as accepting of the relationship as they are. Avatar Aang is also depicted as such in this series, as he, because of his Air Nomad upbringing, has absolutely no problems with his daughter Kya II being a lesbian. |

In Digimon Data Squad, Daimon Sayuri was perfectly all right with her son bringing home a small dinosaur Digimon, calling him "Agu-chan" and scolding Masaru for fussing when he took the last of the fried eggs. She comes across as kind, but rather simple-minded, until she reveals that she knew about DATS and Digimon all along, as that was why Masaru's Disappeared Dad Suguru... well, disappeared. She had accepted long ago that Masaru would follow in his father's footsteps, and so was utterly unsurprised. | |

Katara and Sokka are 14 and 15 at the start of the original series. Their mother, Kya, was killed by the Fire Nation 5 years prior, and their father, Hakoda, is off at war, so it is their grandmother, Kanna, who calmly wishes the kids well when they head off on a planet-spanning quest to aid the long-missing Avatar Aang in mastering his powers and help bring down the Evil Overlord. What people forget is that the Avatar world is still basically medieval: 14- and 15-year-olds are young adults, not children. Further, when their father learns of it, he congratulates them on choosing to travel with Aang instead of him. In fact, he encourages it, seeing as they've already made a huge difference to the shape of the world and should be as well protected as they would be at home considering they're hanging out with a twelve-year-old Physical God. | |

The Noob franchise has a recurring subject matter of parents of some of the players or other people of older generations having a negative view of gaming. Arthéon's mother, already quite meddling in the first place, restricted his playing hours because of that view, which put him in a Can't Catch Up position to his guildmates and eventually led to his downfall. That makes Tenshirock look like an open-minded parent when, in the webseries, he turns out to be the father of another character and to have at some point reacted to his son playing MMORPG by creating an avatar on the same game. | |

Steven Universe: Greg is very open to Steven's desire to be part of the Crystal Gems, only expressing worry when he sees how dangerous things can be. This is deconstructed in sequel series Steven Universe: Future. Greg grew up with helicopter parents, who are shown to have controlled every aspect of his life. He didn't want Steven to grow up like he did, so he gave him near-total freedom. Steven expresses his anger over Greg's parenting style, as he spent the first 10 years of his life living in a van, never went to school, and never even saw a doctor until he went of his own volition. He grew up without structure in his life, which contributed to self-destructive habits, and a semi-official diagnosis of C-PTSD, since he was never forbidden from going on dangerous, traumatizing adventures. After Steven's outburst, Greg starts talking about how happy he is that Steven can talk to him about these things, and how Calling the Old Man Out would have ended badly for him, which Steven immediately tunes out. Connie Maheswaran's mother, when we first meet her, is very controlling and strict towards her daughter. In the episode "Nightmare Hospital", after Steven and Connie protect her from two gem mutants, she promises to not only be more open to Steven and the Gems' influence on Connie, but she will be less controlling as well. On Connie's first mission, in the episode "Gem Hunt", Connie's mother asks Steven to take pictures of Connie, showing her openness and willingness to allow Connie to aid Steven and Pearl. Barb Miller — mother of Sadie Miller — starts off as a mix of Stage Mom and My Beloved Smother but becomes more open to Sadie's wishes to live her own life once Sadie starts calling her out on her controlling behavior. However, we also see a more negative side to this in season 4. When Sadie doesn't come home one night, Barb waits until the next day to look for her, proclaiming that Sadie is old enough to decide whether she sleeps at home or not. This leads to a MAJOR Oh, Crap! when Steven tells her that Sadie was already headed home when he saw her on the night of her disappearance. |

The Young Wizards series, Nita's parents seem to be awfully accepting of the fact that she's made herself a personal enemy of the Lone Power by becoming a foot soldier for the Cosmic Forces of Good. But then this might just be resignation in the face of the fact that there's absolutely nothing they can do to stop her: grounding your daughter is pretty futile when she can both walk through walls and teleport. Apparently, Kit's father took it amazingly well. "My son's a brujo....cool." Don't think that it was easy though. At the time they decided to come out to their parents (during Deep Wizardry), Nita had volunteered to take part in an undersea ritual with the whale wizards without fully understanding that the role she had taken required her to sacrifice herself to complete it. Telling your parents you're probably going to die in the course of your work never goes over well. However both the terms of the ritual and the Wizard's Oath entail that she can't go back on her commitment without serious consequences—at best, the surrender of her wizardry and a boost for the Lone Power, at worst, if the ritual fails, the destruction of the Atlantic seaboard. She makes it out alive because someone was able to Take a Third Option. By the same token, it's dishonorable at best to use wizardry to get out of something like being grounded, and Tom and Carl, the local Seniors, cooperate with parents in on The Masquerade and aren't above restricting the powers of a misbehaving wizard if they absolutely have to. (Nita's sister Dariane gets grounded from interplanetary travel in A Wizard's Holiday—worse than it sounds since she has close friends in parts of the universe too far away to observe using conventional astronomy.) |

In Lincoln Gets Limber, Lincoln discovers that he likes doing gymnastics, but he hides it from everybody, even his parents, except for his schoolmates who are also in his gymnastics class by claiming that he's actually doing dodgeball. Two weeks later, Rita finds out when she goes to pick him up from the Royal Woods sports center, which prompts Lincoln to also tell the truth to Lynn Sr. that same night. While both of them are a bit upset that Lincoln lied to them about what he was really doing, they allow him to continue gymnastics because they're glad that he found a sport that he likes doing for regular exercise. They also promise not to tell his sisters or anybody else about it until he's ready to tell them. | |

In season four of Halt and Catch Fire, it is revealed that the Clarks' daughter Haley is gay. While Gordon seems initially upset at this discovery, it's more about his not knowing something so important about his daughter rather than any homophobia. In the final episode, Donna and Cameron agree that Haley is gay without any hesitation, and Donna calls her "amazing". | |

Saisyu Kusanagi from The King of Fighters, who apparently didn't notice that Kyo went missing for at least half a year after beating Orochi, and even then didn't bother to talk to him afterwards. The KOF: Kyo manga and other side materials explain that Saisyu and Shizuka (his wife and Kyo's mother) have known for several years that their son was destined for BIG battles and accepted said fact since there's no way they can avoid it. They'd rather let him fight and help him out than actively oppose something no one can really escape from. | |

Kim Possible's parents are completely supportive of their daughter's supervillain-fighting activities and don't bat an eyelid over her flying halfway around the world to stop Dr. Drakken's latest scheme and risk life and limb in the process, so long as she's doing well on the home front. Dating boys, though, her father isn't so happy with. Despite his feelings, he's willing to accept it when Kim has a boyfriend. Kim's mom is completely supportive of her having a relationship with Ron, Kim's childhood friend and partner in crime-fighting, even encouraging their relationship. This also extends to Kim's younger twin brothers, Jim and Tim. Their parents are apparently completely okay with them blowing up the garage with their experiments (though it's somewhat justified in that Mr. Possible, their father, did just that when he was their age.) | |

Much to his surprise, his parents already knew he was going to be king, and are merely disappointed that he didn't tell him sooner. His (male) fiance then proudly announces their engagement, despite all Yuri's protests, only for his mother and fiance to plan a shopping trip to buy a wedding gown, much to Yuri's horror. | |

Daria: Jane's mom is open-minded to a potentially unhealthy degree. Examples of this behaviour include letting her youngest son live in a tent in the backyard for over a month, never punishing her children for ANY infractionnote although it should be noted that this is actually Truth in Television, as a minority of parents have raised their children without punishments and have instead opted to use gentle guidance and reasoning and "natural consequences", which ironically but logically work better than punishments, and remaining in her kiln room for weeks on end. However, repeated exposure to all her children and husband at once does fray her nerves a bit. Daria's own father Jake is a slightly saner example. When Trent's girlfriend showed up at Daria's house looking for him, Jake at first mistook her to be Quinn's date. He just shrugged and commented, "Huh. I guess I really don't know my kids," clearly not bothered by the idea that his daughter may be bisexual or a lesbian. |

Shinichi's parents in Case Closed don't seem to mind that he's staying as a child so he can be with his girlfriend more. Not exactly in the beginning though, where Yusaku and Yukiko played a Batman Gambit to try to force Shinichi/Conan to come with them to the USA, so he'd get his condition cured and then testify against the Black Organization. He had to talk with them quite a bit to convince them otherwise. | |

One Piece has a downplayed example with Kaido of all people. His daughter Yamato is a huge Fanboy of Kozuki Oden and she tells Kaido she wants to be like Oden. Yamato means that literally and Oden was a man. Her father gave her a beating for this but apart from that Kaido apparently took it relatively in stride, considering that now he refers to her as "his son". So the father doesn't approve of his child's decision but he still acknowledges it. | |

Pokémon: Pokémon: The Series: Mrs. Ketchum has no problem with allowing her son Ash, age 10, to travel the world - with or without any traveling companions and amass a small personal army of creatures who protect him; it's a custom that borders on Rite of Passage, after all. Plus, his friends sometimes crash at his place for arbitrary lengths of time as well; again, she's cool with this and dotes on them almost as though they were her own children. In the second movie, she's slightly annoyed with him being right in the middle of the end of the world. But she loosens up later. In Pokémon Adventures, Gold's mom asks where her son is, but turns around and says "Oh well, he'll be back when he wants to." before getting an answer. |

In the Hannah Montana fic "Thirst", after Miley has spent time agonising over her self-realisation that she's in love with Lilly, when she finally gets the nerve to tell her father, Robbie Ray assures her that he recognises that Lilly is the most important thing in Miley's life, and he never wants Miley to feel as though she has to apologise for loving someone, giving Miley hope that she can weather how the rest of her family might react so long as her father's on her side. | |

Ace's mom in Too Much Information (2005) is impossibly cool and open-minded. The fact that she doesn't have a problem with her son shacking up with a lesbian and a gay transvestite hardly even registers on this scale. This strip exemplifies it nicely — as here, Ace is frequently mortified by what his mom can get up to. (Note that there are certain things she's somewhat less open-minded about. She kicked Ace out of the house for camping the Quad in a Quake Deathmatch.) One, renting a room in a huge house is not the same as shacking up with people. Two, Ace's mom is far wilder than Ace is ever going to be: Ace doesn't have a last name because his unmarried mom got knocked up and didn't want to admit who the father was. And if you think that's wild, consider: risk-taker, Air Force sergeant, knows lots of languages, can't talk about what she does when she goes back into the Air Force, self-image is that of a superheroine... yep, you guessed it. |

Kyu's mother in Detective School Q. When Kyu is back home one day, she tells him a "cutie" (his childhood friend Kaoru) has come to meet him and wonders if she is Kyu's girlfriend. She then leaves the home to buy groceries to leave Kyu and Kaoru alone. Later, when she sees Kyu and Kaoru holding hands (for an entirely different reason), she apologises for disturbing them. It's later hinted that Mrs. Renjou is actually in a similar, but more down-to-earth situation as Sayuri Daimon. She married Satoru Renjou fully knowing that he was a policeman who lived constantly in danger, took it in stride even when Satoru had to almost completely disappear from her and little Kyuu's lives to protect them, and ever since his tragic death she's sensed that Kyuu will want to follow in his footsteps. Hence why she offered little resistance when Kyuu said he wanted to go to the DDS and supported him and his friends as much as she could. She even lets Ryu live with them for a while. | |

Juno: Juno's father and stepmother are incredibly supportive when Juno reveals she's pregnant. While they're shocked, and Juno's dad grumbles about punching her boyfriend in the dick next time he sees him, they get over it remarkably quickly and immediately focus on figuring out what to do. When Juno reveals her intent to give the baby up for adoption, they get to work helping her prepare, meeting the prospective adoptive parents with her, and helping her set up a doctor's appointment. They're obviously not happy with the situation, but never shame or scold Juno for it, and fully respect her choices and independence. | |

They even warm up to Asami surprisingly quickly. | |

In a similar example to the Spider-Man example above, Oliver's mother Moira reveals that she's both well aware that he is the Arrow, and is incredibly proud of him for it. What makes this especially open-minded is that Oliver, in his 'Hood' persona, had previously held Moira at bow-point for her links to The List. | |

One of the big plot points in Make the Yuletide Gay is Olaf hesitating to explain that Nathan, his roommate who comes into his family's Christmas party is his lover because he doesn't want to be disowned like his campus mate after coming out. When he finally does explain, though, the same thing as the trope image above happens except the parents' role is reversed. Shortly later on, Olaf's parents reveal that they have been suspicious of Olaf's sexuality for six years when he was still a sophomore in high school. | |

This occurs in Danny Phantom during the times when his Secret Identity has been revealed to his folks (before the Reset Button, that is). They're always shocked at first, but they happily and unquestionably accept that their son is both a hero and half ghost, despite their prejudice towards them. In the Grand Finale, Jack goes as far as claiming Danny should be his sidekick. Sam's parents, however, invert this as they can't imagine anything their daughter does is for her own good. | |

Mr. and Mrs. Dunkel from El Goonish Shive are a perfect example. After Elliot is accidentally transformed into a girl, he breaks into a government facility looking for a cure and accidentally clones himself in the process. When he brings the resulting Opposite-Sex Clone back home, his punishment is to be allowed only one brownie after dinner (a punishment that ultimately goes unenforced), and that's only because he lied to his parents about his plans for the evening. Meanwhile, the clone goes unpunished because she wasn't created until AFTER Elliot lied and therefore can't be held accountable for his actions. This shows up again and is lampshaded by Elliot. Neither parent has shown more than a slight interest in the fact that Ellen has turned into a cat. They try to seriously get straight at least some issues, though. And again when Elliot has Ashley over at his house for a second date while everybody else will be out. Apparently he asked his parents whether they would be okay with that. At first, the idea of Elliot going too far with a girl he is just getting to know causes his father to break down laughing. But one Mood Whiplash later, the only thing both parents are worried about is that both teens keep things safe (implied to be because they themselves were quite young when Elliot was born). Other parents in the series zigzag this a bit: Tedd's father encourages his son to experiment with alien transformation tech and has no apparent objection to his studies of magic, gets along well with his girlfriend (a shapeshifting chimera of human, alien, and squirrel DNA) and eagerly accepted her as a member of the family, is the entire reason they even knew about the government lab Tedd and Elliot broke into, and his only problem with having all Tedd's friends over for an unchaperoned transformation-themed birthday party while he's away is the horrifying realization that he's paying for pizza for a house full of teenagers. And yet he's not all that keen on his son's habit of turning himself into a girl, though he hasn't shown any objection to Elliot's involuntary gender-bending. And Nanase's homophobic mother is the primary reason so many of Nanase's spells involve hiding herself, as her daughter goes to great lengths to keep her in the dark both about her relationship with Ellen and the existence of magic. But apparently she knew all that somehow and is refusing to admit it to her daughter for whatever reasons. Their relationship is still strained and full of lies but in the end, she's just glad her daughter survived the encounter with the murderous wizard. |

Greg is very open to Steven's desire to be part of the Crystal Gems, only expressing worry when he sees how dangerous things can be. This is deconstructed in sequel series Steven Universe: Future. Greg grew up with helicopter parents, who are shown to have controlled every aspect of his life. He didn't want Steven to grow up like he did, so he gave him near-total freedom. Steven expresses his anger over Greg's parenting style, as he spent the first 10 years of his life living in a van, never went to school, and never even saw a doctor until he went of his own volition. He grew up without structure in his life, which contributed to self-destructive habits, and a semi-official diagnosis of C-PTSD, since he was never forbidden from going on dangerous, traumatizing adventures. After Steven's outburst, Greg starts talking about how happy he is that Steven can talk to him about these things, and how Calling the Old Man Out would have ended badly for him, which Steven immediately tunes out. | |

Mae's mom in Night in the Woods tries to be this, and mostly succeeds. She's understanding and patient when Mae drops out of college abruptly and asks to come home, and doesn't push her too much, though she clearly wants to know what happened. When she briefly gets the wrong idea and thinks Mae came home because she's pregnant, she doesn't freak out or get angry, and immediately starts assuring Mae that she'll do whatever he can to help her and that she understands completely. She sometimes loses her patience with Mae and even gets in an argument with her over Mae dropping out, but afterwards, she almost immediately owns that she went too far, and assures Mae that she trusts she had a good reason. | |

There's a quick moment in The George Lopez Show episode "The Kidney Stays in the Picture" where George notices that his son Max is wearing cologne and correctly guesses that it's because he's trying to impress a crush. It's not strictly relevant, but George ends up displaying this trait anyway in his following remark: | |

Pokémon: The Series: Mrs. Ketchum has no problem with allowing her son Ash, age 10, to travel the world - with or without any traveling companions and amass a small personal army of creatures who protect him; it's a custom that borders on Rite of Passage, after all. Plus, his friends sometimes crash at his place for arbitrary lengths of time as well; again, she's cool with this and dotes on them almost as though they were her own children. In the second movie, she's slightly annoyed with him being right in the middle of the end of the world. But she loosens up later. | |

Sailor Moon: Chibiusa's parents, Mamoru and Usagi Tsukino, are remarkably open-minded about letting their daughter fight with them in some extremely dangerous battles, and deliberately allow her to go back in time more than once after her initial time travel adventure to continue with it, which is even more impressive given that Chibiusa has the mind and size of a roughly 6= or 7-year-old child to begin with, and later on grows into something closer to 10 and 12 as the seasons go by. When Chibiusa stays with Kenji, Ikkuko, and Shingo, her grandparents and uncle are also rather happy to see her do largely whatever she wants to at whatever time and place with Usagi, Mamoru, and their friends who are twice as old as she is to start out. | |

Shino Aizawa's mother, in Aizawa-san Multiplies, takes the fact that her daughter has divided into five different copies of herself with only the declaration that she's ready to make dinner for them all. She claims it's because the women in the family all develop a Puberty Superpower. In fact, she's more interested (and encouraging) that Shino finally brought her crush home. | |

Badhaai Do: Despite spending the whole film being a tender doormat towards her in-laws, Shardul's mother is the first person to accept him for being gay, while the rest of them either don't come around or are slower to do so. Discussed; Sumi tells her father that she had assumed homophobia from her mother if she were to come out, but figured that her father would be supportive. She's heartbroken when he isn't initially, but he comes around. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Joyce Summers tries her absolute hardest to be one after finding out Buffy is The Slayer. She gets there in the end, but it takes her a full season! She attempts to tag along on Buffy's patrols and even brings snacks! Furthermore, Giles' role as Team Dad repeatedly has him being the best father any of the cast has ever had, from being fiercely, murderously protective of Buffy to going out of his way to make people happy, even intentionally trying to sacrifice himself to stop Dark Willow, rather than finding a way to kill her. In the comic continuation, he becomes a total Papa Wolf for Faith, too. |

Pretty Cure: Go! Princess Pretty Cure: At the beginning of the series, Minami was prepared to follow in her family business. However, towards the end of the series, she decided she wanted to be a marine biologist. She was worried at first of her parents' reaction, but they completely understand and are supportive of her new dream. Similarly in HuGtto! Pretty Cure, when Saaya's mother Leila catches her daughter confessing that she now wants to be a doctor instead of chasing her original dream to be an actress, she is supportive of her daughter's new goal...though doesn't hide enough sadness about her child growing up to avoid becoming the Monster of the Week. |

She is the reason why it takes a whole year for Tanaka to find out Seiko's real age; she deliberately left Tanaka's calls unanswered. In the last chapter, Ishino nervously shows his mom that his eromanga won a contest as a runner-up. She's completely accepting, though she mentions she won't read it when he's around for the sake of avoiding Parental Sexuality Squick. |

For one, she's not only okay with this whole Tail Red gender-swapping heroine nonsense, but she's also fine with Twoearle converting the basement of the house into a secret base, never mind her complete blessing for Twoearle to jump Souji's bones. In the light novel, she admits that both she and Souji's father were stricken by a serious case of chuunibyou, which is why she was totally okay with her son being a hero by proxy, as he was living his parents' fondest dreams. | |

A nice example is when main character Cutter realizes that his virgin daughter Ember (aged 16-ish) is sexually frustrated, and asks his best friend Skywise to take care of it.

Though she later opens up to the idea of Beth doing training, but not actual sidekick action. When Katie's mom discovers she's been trained by the Mousetress, who is widely believed to be a supervillain, she is upset, though less so than most parents would be. After about a week, and a presentation by the Mousetress's cats, she warms up to the idea of Katie having sidekick training from a superhero, as long as she gets to see what the training is like. |

As shown in a comic for The Legend of Korra, Avatar Korra's parents Tonraq and Senna are fully supportive of their daughter's romantic relationship with Asami Sato — while they're obviously a little surprised upon first learning of it, they're very happy for the two, even going so far as to treat Asami like a second daughter. However, Korra's parents do make a point of warning her and Asami that not everyone may be as accepting of the relationship as they are. Avatar Aang is also depicted as such in this series, as he, because of his Air Nomad upbringing, has absolutely no problems with his daughter Kya II being a lesbian. | |

Mob Psycho 100: Mob is an extremely powerful esper with emotionally volatile powers and a Superpowered Evil Side that can cause mass destruction just by standing in place. The only problem his parents have with all of this is that he keeps accidentally wrecking the silverware at breakfast. His brother developing similar powers provokes the same mildly annoyed reaction. | |
