Screw that, man. I still pay to do my own laundry, so any time I get the chance to do it for free, I take it. I have no shame about taking a basket full of laundry up to Meg's parents' house so I don't have to fight with the discourteous idiots in my building for the privilege of paying $3.70 per load. And, I can do it without watching the effing clock.
No parent of mine has done laundry for me since 1994. So I wouldn't bring my laundry home for them to do for me. I have washed clothes there though. But, if you don't have to pay to do laundry, then you're too old.
Yeah, once you have your own non-coin laundry machine inside your own place, one is too old no matter what. Before then, I am pro using parent's machine as long as the parent does NOT do it for you.
My mother is a bleach devil, and has been required to stay at least 10 feet away from all of my clothing since the fourth grade. Ive never lived close enough to my parents houses to take laundry "home" and do it, or else i probably would have.
I absolutely bring it home when I go visit my parents. I don't pay for it at my apartment but I share the washer/dryer with my 2 roommates and the 3 guys upstairs. If I dont have to fight for a washer.....I'm bringing it home. And if my mom just happens to want to do laundry because it makes her feel like a mom still....who am I to fight that.

if you are bringing it and doing yourself it's ok. if you expect your mom to? that should stop when you are 18. unless you are really sick.
The only acceptable time to do laundry at your parents' house past the age of 18 is when you are visiting for the week.
I think it's okay up through college. Once you're on your own though, you're too old.
And you should be doing it yourself the whole time.
i agree with ken
and your parents should have stopped doing your laundry when you entered high school

I was going to say you are never too old. But you are probably too old if you:
- have children of your own,
- are not in college and have to get on an airplane to get to your folks' house
so i'm going home this weekend and i'm totes considering taking my laundry home and doing it there b/c it's FREE.
How about this, if you say "totes" on a regular basis, you have not reached the maturity level where this is unappropriate.

It’s not free. Electricity and laundry soap cost and then the wear and tear on the washer and dryer
