Kids going far away

My S is only 2.5 hours away but it may as well be 1000 miles. He just comes home for school breaks (except not Spring Break…must go off with friends). When here, he is around the house very little. He’s usually off and running with friends who are also at home for the break, often spending the night with one or the other. He has friends at the local state u. and spends time at their apts. So even though he is here, it’s like he’s not here. Somehow that seems worse than when he is at school. I have wondered if he had gone further away from home if he would be more likely to spend more time with us when he is here…seriously doubt it.
