Two sentences

Are these two sentences grammatically correct? Can they be simplified?

1."Don't swear in front of elders!"

By "elders", I mean people above 50.

2."Violence is not the solution, it only makes things even worse!"


Thank you!

" Speaking to children, we are more likely to say "Don't swear in front of (the) grown-ups". " You need a semicolon between the two clauses. As shown, omit "even".
