I can remember my parents' saying "I strongly suggest..." and it was not precisely an order, but I'd have to have one hell of a good reason to behave differently. It's a matter of tone and circumstance.

I remember quite well my parents' saying, "I strongly suggest..." and, although it was not precisely an order, I'd need one hell of a good reason for behaving differently. It has to do with context and tone.
