Written a long time ago:

Honor thy Father and thy Mother, that thy days may be long in the land.

I have always kind of thought of this as a commandment for children. I hope my kids will listen to me and obey so that their days will be long in the land, so that they will literally not die: 

Put on your seatbelt.
Don't play by the pool.
Stay with Mommy in the parking lot.
Stay with Mommy in Walmart.
Stay with Mommy at the State Fair.
Stop taking kitchen knives outside to dig with them!
Never do drugs.
Get out of the street!
Get your germy fingers out of your mouth.
Don't lick anything in this doctor's office.
Don't lick anything---we're at Walmart!
No punching, especially not in the head.
Please don't carry your brother upside down over this hard concrete.
Don't eat that, it was on the floor AT WALMART.

But I'm realizing that this commandment is for grown ups.
