vaultwarden allows you to keep using the bitwarden client i think, just with your own server. should be the most seamless for the family.
If bitwarden went completely rotten could they cease and desist vault warden?
They could, but probably it's more likely they would just introduce changes that break compatibility a little at a time.
I'd asked a similar question. Basically, the response I got was: if the something goes sideways, the community can hard fork all their clients and use vaultwarden as a server (their current licenses would allow that).
Another suggestion was that you can always use the web ui bundled with vaultwarden directly (heh, I've been using vaultwarden for years and I don't think I ever used the web ui - just the applications, CLI, browser extension).
