Yes. All that swearing, name-calling, and disparaging is straight-up abuse. If that's the rule in that household, don't let it go by. Those kids will be ruined in all sorts of ways.

Your stepson and dil have sent you a clear message. I'd be removing myself from their vicinity and handing back grandma's care and chauffering to the blood relatives. You don't want to be accused of murdering grandma if she has a heart attack while you're driving her around.
