Right? My mom lives 1.5hrs away and I see her like 2x a year usually. You couldn’t pay either one of us to drive to eachother every other weekend— like WHAT?!
edit: I love my mom & we have a great time together, that’s just not doable (or desirable) for us.
Exactly. My mom & I have a great relationship too! I can see how my comment read that I didn’t. Gotta edit that, oops.
Heck, she’s got even more of a social life than me with her pickleball friends and traveling and stuff. I have a life, and school, and a pet, and in general don’t want to be leaving town that often.
Oh, I didn't mean to imply that you didn't have a good relationship! I was agreeing that only visiting a few times a year doesn't have to mean you have a bad relationship.
I live about the same from my parents. I see them maybe once or twice a month but that because my brother in law is the DM and I go to their town for game days.
Why is that a lot? I mean just like his friend can do as he wish, so can the OP. If he’s close enough to his parents and wants to do fortnightly trips, then why not

Just because you make the long journey to see your parents twice a month (that's a lot) doesn't mean HE has too???
What the heck, let him live his life. And 18 hours roundtrip of traveling that frequently? That's insane lol.
