Grammar
WILL or WOULD
Hello.
Why shouldn't you fight a bully?
1) You shouldn't fight a bully because it WILL make things worse.
2) You shouldn't fight a bully because it WOULD make things worse.
Are the two answers both grammatically correct?
Is there a difference in meaning between the two?
Thank you
