I don’t understand this card, could someone explain it to me?  I’ve played Agricola 3 times, so I understand the game itself, just not the point of this card.  When do family members not return home?

Tom, instead of an opponent getting wood immediately upon placing a family member in that space, she’d have to wait until the end of her turn to receive the wood. Effectively, everyone else is playing one turn behind you because they can’t use goods the turn that they should have received them.

Ohh, I see what you’re saying.  So if you select the action to get wood and also the action to build a fence, then you can’t build the fence that turn with the wood you would have received that turn, but need to wait until the next turn.  Wow, seems like a pretty excellent profession card!
