+**Warning:** naming the foreign key same as the relation name will prevent the relation for being called on dynamic property, i.e. in the example above if you replaced `group_ids` with `groups` calling `$user->groups` will return the column instead of the relation.
 
 ### EmbedsMany Relationship
 
 If you want to embed models, rather than referencing them, you can use the `embedsMany` relation. This relation is similar to the `hasMany` relation but embeds the models inside the parent object.
 
 **REMEMBER**: These relations return Eloquent collections, they don't return query builder objects!
