I would elaborate a bit more by saying that I think that the amount of time that we spend with our parents and our relatives in general needs to change throughout our lives. In our early years we see them a lot because we need them. Then we reach a point were to keep growing as people it is beneficial to see them only a little. Or at least this is my experience: I'm now studying abroad because I realized that I reached the maximum growth that I could reach by having my family around, and that I needed to stay away from them for a while to keep growing. After having new experiences and thus having (almost) completed my personal growth, I may consider seeing them more often in the future.
