Receiving Social Security Survivor Benefits?

My mother passed away in June of 2011. I was receiving benefits till I turned 18 in 2012. My mother also left behind my brother who just graduated last month so he will no longer receive them and my two sisters. One is 10 years old and has been having seizures over the past 3 years since my mother passed away and my other sister who is 3 years old. Neither have insurance and live with my grandparents who take care of her financially and emotionally while my stepdad receives the benefits and does not do one thing for them. He doesn't even visit them and spends my sisters' money on his drugs and his girlfriend. What can I do to stop this and have my sisters get the money they deserve. It would really help out my grandparents, but we're scared if we take him to court and we lose that we will never see my sisters again.

I suggest your grandparents and you immediately go to the local Social Security Office and explain the problem. They can then start an investigation into the situtation and decide what can be done.
