Is it ok to go home?

I’m going to elaborate and echo Julliet.

Wanting to continue to be close to your family is not childish. In fact, I think it’s a sign of maturity to not think “EW parents!” I’m 24, married, and we still visit our parents (mine and spouse’s) quite often. In fact, we’re spending the long weekend out here with his parents and we probably come out about once a month (they live about an hour from us). My parents live further away but they’re retired and come stay with us every month or every other month since it’s easier for them to come here than vice versa.

Being close to your family is perfectly fine. Wanting to spend time with them is fine. You might even start to cherish those moments as you get older. (Though of course, not everyone comes from a great family background.)
