"Don't forget...

Please remember to wash your hands."

it's obviously for those who can't handle negative demands - like you have to say "remember to" instead of "don't forget to" and "please behave" instead of "don't be naughty"

71? why?

My favourite ever reported response from a child to 'please behave' is 'I am being have!'.
