Your table is ending up with three columns because the HasMany in Relation
is called Variables but the other side of the relation is called
ParentRelation; this is causing FNH to not see them as two sides of the same
relationship. Try calling TheColumnNameIs on your ParentRelation and giving
it "Relation_id".
Making that change might actually fix your saving issue.
