You will likely get hacked, don't do it.

In general not so much. But every port you open could be exploited, and you take somewhat of a security risk.
Just make sure that the program you use on the port stays updated, and that you have a decent updated anti-virus program. You and your family should be fine.

So there's no danger... is there not any chance i could get hacked? is the chance 0 %? for getting hacked i got : AVG Full internet secuirty 2013... soo
It's higly unlikely, though it's never 0%. There are better targets on the net to hack / crack for those who do that kind of thing.

You are at more risk from browsing dodgy websites.
No, it isn`t dangerous to portforward.
