"Should" is a suggestion, "must" is that you have to.

Should is spelled differently. Just Kidding.
Should means less. It means "yeah, you SHOULD do this, but, you know..."
Must is an imperative. "I MUST eat or else I will starve," said the man who had been stranded in the desert, not "I should probably eat something. I'm a bit peckish."

The word "must" is stronger. It is similar to a comand. Whereas "should" is like a recomendation.
You must wear a seatbeat or you will get a ticket.
You should clean your room.

I think the same as the above. Should is something that you are better off to follow, or are being requested to do it, but it's not as definite as must which is you have to do it..it's required.

Should still give a person a choice. Must is a directive that leaves no choice.

should is a word usually meaning a suggestion or sometimes a command, depending on tone. must usually means necessity or extreme desire by the individual.

Should means that you don't have to do something,but that you might want to do.Must means that you have to do something.But really only figures of authority can tell you that you MUST do something.Anyone can tell you that you should do something,as if they were giving advice.Hope that helps.
