It is HARD to figure out how to come out as a poly family, and in what circumstances and how much.
I used to belong to a gym, and went there 3-5 days a week. I'd chat with various employees about the Giants, about the weather, about their vacations and mine. I recall one woman who didn't blanch when I said something about my boyfriend's wife, but when I said that I was going out to dinner with my boyfriend's wife, she couldn't grok we could be friends, rather than me being a dirty little secret.
Of course, as a child, I'd often mention "my moms" and the response would range from not noticing to extreme confusion. I expect your son will experience that, too.
