Single table inheritance is generally a bad pattern, and leads to all kinds of 
nasty rabbit holes like the ones you are describing.

I generally avoid STI in almost all cases because of the overhead (it is 
generally not efficient from data base perspective) and all the callback woes 
you are describing are a good case in point for moving away from that style of 
programming entirely.
