This document discusses the differences between using "should/ought to" and "had better" when giving advice. While should/ought to indicate general advice, had better conveys a stronger sense of urgency or warning. Some key differences highlighted include: - Had better advice is stronger, more urgent, and implies greater authority from the advisor - Had better often warns of potential negative consequences if the advice is not followed - Examples show should/ought to giving general advice, while had better references specific situations where following the advice is important
