validations

It is important to note that by default, Mongoid will validate the children of any relation that are loaded into memory. The relations that this applies to are:

• embeds_many
• embeds_one
• has_many
• has_one
• has_and_belongs_to_many

If you do not want this behaviour, you may turn it off when defining the relation.

class Person
  include Mongoid::Document

  embeds_many :addresses, validate: false
  has_many :posts, validate: false
end
