I think its a stretch to assume that Katara has never met any of her three grandchildren before simply because the five year old doesn't recognize her.

Yeah, the 5 year old calling his grandmother "strange woman" doesn't mean that Katara never met her grandkids before, it just means the then-youngeat member of the family doesn't remember when he last saw his grandmother (which isn't that unusual, considering that people don't usually remember things pre-4/5)

Pff no, it's just that in my area, it's normal to refer to people you don't know as "some aunt/uncle" :) so in a way I'm calling them old strangers lol
