So my stepdaughters (18,22) and step granddaughter came over on Christmas Day...for their money and gifts of course. Then on the 26th I ran to the store. I was in line and I heard kind of loud talking a bit of a commotion and I noticed SD22 with her grandma and my step grand. They had accidentally got in line without seeing me and the scurried to get away to a different line hoping I wouldn't notice ...I suspect. As they were walking my stepgrand said "grandma". So....I called out to SD22. It took twice yelling out her name. She looked up frowned and waved and looked back down. I know my hubbys kids are supposed to ignore him in public if they are with their mommy or her family...but I have no part of this. He has been divorced for 10. Furthermore, he gives the Christmas cash and I do anything that is wrapped. I told him what happened and he said that is to be expected. I'm not really hurt. They aren't particularly nice and I'm not attached...but I am insulted and feel a bit used.

What does everyone else think? Is this common? Any advice or thoughts would be welcome.
