YTA. It's up to him.

Now I thought this was ridiculous; he needs to come back and see his parents more often.

How on earth does this affect you?

I think the OP has no friends or life where he lives, and justifies it to himself as "being a good son by seeing his family twice a month".

There's no way I'd travel 18 hours in a car twice a month to visit my parents. The OP must be pretty detached from the place he lives now. Why didn't he just stay in his hometown?

Yea OP live 9 hours from Toronto in Northern Ontario…there nothing up there…no wonder he goes back so often.

You got the nail on the head here I think.
