They are simply afraid that my business will not work. I have told them about MJ's books and my dad is actually reading TMF (that I bought him) and he enjoys it. My mom, however, thinks its a load of bullsh*t, but that's understandable because she gets paid for her time.

@Kak's response in succinct.
The only thing I'll add here is let your RESULTS do the talking, not you.
You have a lot more to prove by going against the grain.
Here's another thing I'll add that I used to struggle with a lot.
Beyond this forum, I think you need to find someone IRL who can be a mentor. Someone older and successful who can vouch for you.
I was fairly deviant too and my parents worried about me.
It was a lot easier for them to feel at ease when...
1: I started showing results for what I was doing, and
2: Older, respectable people started acknowledging me for those results in front of parents.
Life gets much easier when someone respected says
"Yeah, I saw what xyz is doing. It's quite something!"
A parent's mood immediately shifts from worry to proud. Imagine that.
Who can you associate with that would make them proud?
I'm not too far removed from your age (21), so I get how it feels.
Sometimes it doesn't even leave in adulthood. Just keep getting results.
