i live about 30 miles from mine. see them about every other weekend. im in college though so im not completely independant
 
I see my dad almost every day.
My mom lives in TN and I see her once or twice a year, but we email on a regular basis.

🙂
 
every xmas, at least once during the summer and I try a to make at least 1 other trip back home

they live in MD and I live in CA

funny thing is that I see them as much as I see my brother who is in San Jose while Im in Los Angeles
 
I just saw my parents for the first time in over 8 years last month. I've been away for 8 years in the Army and then University. Moving back home near them in a few short months.
 
For those who are making fun of the word meet, he said he's from India.
Kalster,
In american english, you would normally use the word "see". As in, I see my parents once a year. Meet usually refers to the first time you talk with or are introduced to someone. As in, I met my wife 10 years ago.

Anyway, I see my mom once or twice a month. I haven't seen my dad in a couple years. They are divorced but both live in the same town that is about a 3 hour drive from my house.

thanks, didnt realize the 'subtle' difference in the usage of meet and see 😉

but yep I havent seen them for sometime now.
 
usually once a week, but sometimes I go 2-3 weeks without seeing them. I live 2 miles away; I usually stop by their house on Saturdays to do my laundry and swipe food 🙂
 
3-5 years.

Try to see all of our kids at least 1-2 years. Some need it more often.
 
sometimes i wish more. i only see them whenever i head home, which is usually major holidays now.

i want to move back up north though.
