If you like your parents and enjoy spending time with them, there's nothing wrong with wanting to see them. Like you said, you live on your own and support yourself. Cutting your parents out of your life completely couldn't possibly make you more grown up than you already are.

I live about 6 hours away from mine, so I only see them 3 or 4 times a year and I talk to them on the phone maybe once every two weeks. I don't feel like that's "too much" contact. I rarely need them for anything on a practical level and no longer see them as a safety net, but I still look forward to my opportunities to see them.

My "I am TOO and adult, dammit" problems are more related to being a woman who is without a serious BF/husband or children (and I don't even want the latter). In a lot of people's minds, that makes me less mature than someone far younger who has those things, as if those are the only life experiences that can build character.
