Today, a parent will say to a child; "Do (insert something here)" and the usual response is "Why should I"
It used to be that the Father would say "Climb that tree!" or mum would say "Don't touch that" and before the child had the chance to stop and ask "Wh..........." something large and dangerous would have ripped the little bugger's head off and be chewing on their genitals or the kid would be foaming at the mouth and rolling its little eyes back in its head from the bite or the toxic plant effects mum was just telling them about.
Nowadays they just say "Why should I?" and there isn't a real excuse to turn around and suggest that "if you don't you will die in a horrifically-painful-and-not-neccesarily-quick way"
