Rock the boat



Rock the boat: Go against the rules of a group.
Let's imagine that you are cruising smoothly on a boat, but suddenly the boat is rocked or shaken by something, you will probably feel uncomfortable or upset. This phrase also means to upset people who accept the existing condition.

Example: Don't rock the boat if you want to be liked by many people in this small and conservative village
