      Please see https://github.com/mongodb/mongoid/pull/5202 for a demonstration of these issues and further commentary.

      • Embedded associations with touch: false will incorrectly touch the parent when touching the child:
      class Hospital
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps
  embeds_many :floors, inverse_of: :hospital
end

class Floor
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps
  embedded_in :hospital, touch: false
end 

building = Hospital.create!
floor = building.floors.create!
floor.touch
building.updated_at # it is later than it should be

      I have put up a PR which I believe illustrates these issues a little more clearly: https://github.com/mongodb/mongoid/pull/5204
