It’ll be important to your parents that they understand what’s going on (and
what isn’t going on) when you contribute code to FSF projects (e.g. Emacs). Try
to anticipate the questions they’ll ask:
- who owns your work, what obligations you have (or don’t have) after
contributing
- how you may (or may not) be held liable for what you write
- etc.
They’re important questions any concerned and attentive parent would ask.
Best of luck,
