Worked the same way with my kids. 4 days off isn't enough time for a trip that takes 1 day each way if flying (and too expensive anyway) or by train, 2-3 if driving. Not quite the same as if they are at school a few hours driving distance.He didn't want to come home for Thanksgiving, too short a time for the effort, and was surprised that most kids did make the trip back home. No choice for winter break... dorms are closed so he has to.
Is #2 bringing home a huge bag of dirty laundry for you to do?
