I haven't told my parents, but for a long time I had a fairly toxic relationship with my mother due to some issues related her divorce from my father. It's not the same thing, but it's something that drove us apart and had us not understanding each other, but time has helped and letting go of whatever disappointment we had in each other has helped and just accepting we are family and love each other that's not going to change despite whatever other problems we had, helped as well.
