Have the same issue [Ember-data: find, findQuery etc. and hasMany associations](http://discuss.emberjs.com/t/ember-data-find-findquery-etc-and-hasmany-associations/1109), where the parent model is not updated when its children are loaded. This person has said, he calls `createRecord` to update the parent model. Can I know the correct approach people following?
