I too hate it when Ow has all the "step family" fun time w/ my girls and in several weeks H is taking them all to the annual circus and it really hurts. Did your H ever do fun things out in public w/ Ow and your kids?
I know the 4 of them went shopping and out to eat once, but other than that I don't think they did much out in public. I could be wrong about that since I don't know everything that happened while they were with him and I generally didn't prod them with questions when they came home.
