Why does Q tell his son "how many times do I have to remind you DO NOT PROVOKE THE BORG?

How about it's just a funny line delivered by the delightful John de Lancie, the gods' gift to writers? Guarantee writers knocking this stuff out under the deadline gun didn't discuss the deep meaning of the line.
 
It's not for the Q as much as it is for other species in the universe.

Don't provoke or otherwise spur on the Borg. Basically don't use your supernatural(for all intents and purposes) abilities to manipulate or engage the Borg into action.

Remember Q Junior was toying with the Borg-for his amusement.

That's not something Q are supposed to do.
