Not all girls...I just said "many" I met. Probably not even most of them.
If it makes you feel better, I met many of my female friends parents, and they always welcomed me into thier homes and were very generous. Japanese families are very close (not all of them, but many of the ones I knew were), partially it's just from living together in tight quarters. You can't really go to someone's house to visit and NOT be hanging out with the parents, as there is no "den" or "family room" for people to escape to. The kitchen and living room are usually attached, and that's where everyone hangs out.
