Maybe she is in the serial to show the people that an elderly person, a mother, too can be abused by her own son and DIL...
...Also to show how vulnerbale elderly people are, at their twilight years they depend on the goodwill of their son's and daughters looking after them. That many elders out there do not recieve any respect, are ignored if they do try to 'speak' up.
Don't forget GD could be kicked out by SS nay moment - where will she go? who will feed and cothe her?....She more than anyone knows what her own son is like, she has seen her DIL from day one so knows what they are capable of. She is not a superwoman that she could do everything and look after everyone. At her age, being so vulnerable, she should look after herself...if her son had a shred of humanity in him than I would be wondering why she isn't talking to him or punishing him....as it is, it is wise she has kept quiet, otherwise her own life would be in danger.
