# If you want to validate the presence of a boolean field (where the real
# values are +true+ and +false+), you will want to use
# validates_inclusion_of :field_name, in: [true, false].
#
# This is due to the way Object#blank? handles boolean values:
# false.blank? # => true.
#
# Configuration options:
# * :message - A custom error message (default is: "can't be blank").
#
# There is also a list of default options supported by every validator:
# +:if+, +:unless+, +:on+ and +:strict+.
# See ActiveModel::Validation#validates for more information
