The Potters were in the Order, extremely loyal to Dumbledore and
ever willing to risk their lives working against the Dark Lord. They
would have expected their son to do the same-fighting bravely along
side them and sacrificing if the need arises.
However, in the Order of the Phoenix, after Dumbledore revealed the
entire prophecy to young Harry, the poor boy was haunted by it and
didnt even tell Ron and Hermione, his two best friends. So, imagine
telling a couple that their son had to either perish or kill the
Dark Lord feared by everyone during that time. Therefore, in my
humble opinion, no one knew about the entire prophecy except
Dumbledore and of course, Professor Trelawny.
