Couldn't have said it better, UW. My parents and my brothers know and really act like they could care less. Come to think of it, I don't think my youngest brother's wife knows, but then I don't like her anyway and couldn't give a blue fuck what she thinks. My sister... I'm not sure; I haven't told her but if she knows it's no big wiggle to me.
Extended family is another story entirely. My dad's dad is kind of an asshole (and I say that in a loving way) and the grief I'd get from him would be more along the lines of "why do you work at home instead of out in the real world like a normal person?"... just not worth it. I think the porn part of it would be so "distasteful" to him that he'd try to skirt the issue as much as possible, which is pretty much they way he always does things. I'm not close to the rest of dad's family... they don't know me or what I do.
My mom's side of the family lives pretty much in the bible belt... see UW's quoted statement above as an explanation for their lack of knowledge.
My son knows and is showing a great deal of curiosity about and interest in writing HTML, using FTP, how servers work, etc. A couple more years and I may have a built in partner.
I suppose if the neighbors ask I'll tell 'em, but at this point it's not an issue.
Good luck Jugg... I wouldn't trade places with you for all the tea in China
