You would be surprised! My father is not very understanding of a lot of things about me. Being an AB, being bi-sexual and having a boyfriend, and being transgender are all things that are hard to accept but he tries and I know he still loves me. Sometimes I think it's just got to be a dad thing to want to contradict their children to being who they really are. In the end though parents generally love you all the same although it may take a while for them to accept something as quirky as being AB. It definitely took my parents a couple months before they came to terms with it, but I know I am happier in the long run not having to hide from them.
