How close do you stay with your parents and family while in IB

I love my family and try my best to talk with my parents and siblings on a regular basis but it can be tough with the demanding job and trying to live my own life outside of work at times. Also family issues and stress can be overwhelming for me on top of this job which makes me sad.
