Back home, the Drakes were always travelling. Hell, the first Christmas he was Robin, they sent a message that they wouldn't be home in time and TJ acted like that was an entirely normal thing to do.
[You could say a lot about Bruce, but once he realized how important Christmas was to Dick, there was never a year it wasn't celebrated. Even when he and Bruce were on the outs, because Alfred would still do it.]
But they had a housekeeper that they left in charge of TJ. So it wasn't like he was entirely on his own. Just easier to sneak past her.
