Many parents were extremely supportive (and still are) about my joining and involvement in a sorority. For starters my cousin was already in a fraternity and his wife in a sorority so we heard a lot of good things about greek life long before I started university. My parents thougt it sounded like a very positive experience.
One thing my chapter does every year right after rush is over is hold a parent's/family tea. While all parents are invited it is mainly for the parents of the new members so they can really see the benefits of going greek and dispell any myths or worries. Because yo have parents attending who have had daughters in DPhiE for sometime, the new parents can also talk to them and get a parental point of view. It seems to work really well.
