We use “had better” plus the infinitive without “to”  to give advice. Although “had” is the past form of “have”, we use “had better” to give advice about the present or future.

• Advice: Should, Ought to, Had better

  1.      Use should and ought to to say that something is advisable.
  Usage Note: We do not usually use the negative of ought to in American English. We use shouldn’t instead.
  Mario should find a new job.
  He ought to read the help wanted ads.
  He shouldn’t quit school.  Not common  He ought not to quit.
  2.      Use had better for urgent advice-when you believe that something bad will happen if the person does not follow the advice.
  Usage Note: We usually use the contraction for had better.
  The negative of had better is had better not.
  Be careful! Had better always refers to the present or the future, never to the past (even thought it uses the word had).

  When should I apply?
  4.      It is usually considered impolite to give advice to people of equal or higher status (such as friends or bosses) unless they ask for it.
  When we give unasked-for advice, we often soften it with maybe, perhaps, or I think.
  Friend: Should I shake hands with the interviewer?
  You: Yes, you should.
  Boss: Where should I take our client to lunch?
  You: I think you should go to the Tuscan Grilll.
