I don't know about the context that you are in or anything, but your relatives' responses would likely have been pretty incomprehensible to me..

My dad is a E*FP as well and actually my best friend is E*FP. They are truly great and supportive people in my perspective [but then, I am a INFJ].

But then there are always people who cannot be proud of others, whatever types they are. I am in law school myself. I do at times notice some sort of contempt for intellectual/academic pursuit [especially in North America; this generalization may not be accurate, but being originally from Taiwan I've seen fewer instances of this type of contempt there].

ivory tower..."you think too much"...etc.

But being an INTJ yourself, I suppose you may just march ahead toward your testination and valiantly push aside those useless, negative attitudes. [My march is more sluggish; it might be the "F" thing..] Anyway, best of luck to you!

Feel free to ask me questions about law schools. I am studying law in Canada though, so I am not sure how much of a help I may be.
