I informed my parents I was an Atheist at the tender age of 8. It went something like this: Me "I don't believe in god." Mom "Your sister convinced you of this didn't she?" Me "No. Figured it out myself." Mom "Oh." That was pretty much the end of it. My parents, who were never all that religious to begin with, went on to watch plenty of George Carlin and Eddie Izzard comedy hours with me when I was a teenager and found more truth in the observations of comedians than they ever found in a church. They're kind of right there with me on the whole higher power thing now. If only it could go that easily for everyone. Congratulations on your coming out.
