You can say, “don’t touch that!” to a child, or “don’t touch that or you’ll burn your hand and it will hurt!”; I would suggest the second choice, which includes the reason, an understanding of the consequences, is more likely to be followed; it is more likely to produce “buy-in.” Our sages called it a siyag LaTorah, a fence around the Torah, wh…
