Caradura vs. Un Morro

Members of the Forum!

What is the difference between:

"Tiene un morro" and "es un caradura"?

Angelica,

And what if the person disapointed his family in terms of life and career ?

Poli,

But I have found it as a noun in the dictionary, and I think it is used to wish people to get better. But is it used in other situations than that?

Mejora vs. Mejoramiento

Members of the Forum,

What is the difference in the usage of mejora and mejoramiento?

And mejoría?
