12. Relating a model to another model more than once
In this example, a ``Person`` can have a ``mother`` and ``father`` -- both of
which are other ``Person`` objects.
Because a ``Person`` has multiple relationships to ``Person``, we need to
distinguish the relationships. Set ``rel_name`` to tell Django what the
relationship should be called, because ``Person`` has two relationships to the
same model. Also, set ``related_name`` to designate what the reverse
relationship is called.
