Welcome MaggieRap:   

A raging parent can be very disturbing for a child.  I can understand your concern.

Is the father in the picture?  Can you share an example or two of when she raged at the children?  Were you at her house at the time, or the reverse?

What is your in law's history, in regard to mental health?  To your knowledge, has she ever been treated for a mental illness/disorder?
