    after leaving can’t join another for a year

    Can you fix this? There was enough misinformation floating around about this already when this feature went into beta.

    Adults can leave a family at any time, however, they will need to wait 1 year from when they joined the previous family to create or join a new family.

    it should say something like: “After joining, can’t join another for a year”
