The dad went home but the person in question did not go home with the dad.

 

Can you say this for certain?

 

It could be that neither of them went home.

 

Couldn't it even be read in isolation as being logically possible that the person in question went home, but the dad didn't?

After correcting my mistakes, I can as a newbie make a new attempt to translate as follows:

 

either:

a. He didn't return home with his father this summer... (using present tense)

or

b. This summer he didn't return home with his father....

 

I hope by this time I got it right.  I would like the person who started this thread to comment as he/she would have by now gotten the correct answer which most agree is B.
