Nope, I sure did not want my parents to have a thing to do with my life away from home. I would have felt embarrassed to admit to friends that I wasn't paying my own way, for one--it would have been like saying I was still living with my mom and dad. For another, I didn't want my parents to have any presumed right to walk in on me in my apartment--which, believe me, they would have loved to have don--or take away "my" car if they got pissed off at me for some reason, or anything else.
