In Romania, being 'atent' (careful) is a highly valued trait to avoid 'călcatul pe bec' in social hierarchies. The phrase is equally common in the Republic of Moldova, often used with the same informal flavor. Younger generations might shorten it to just 'a o comite', but 'a călca pe bec' remains the classic 'parental' warning.
