MUST
When we think that something is necessary, we use must.
If you use must in the negative form means that something is forbidden.
Negative form: must + not = MUSTN'T
HAVE TO
When we are in a special situation and think that doing something will be necessary, we use HAVE TO.
For negative forms we use the auxiliary verb DO/DOES followed by NOT:
don't have to.../ doesn't have to....
