have to, like to, want to

Since we’re on a conversation binge around here:

Hans: But do I have to sleep?! I just can’t sleep at naptime!
Mom: No, you don’t have to sleep. I can’t make you sleep. No one can make you sleep; but I can make you rest.
Hans: But I don’t like to rest!
Mom: You don’t have to like it.
Hans: But, I don’t want to rest!
Mom: You don’t have to want to. You have to obey.
Hans: starts arguing with Jaeger instead
