Lack of control

I am separated about 6 weeks now and I hate the feeling of having no control, my eh has moved in with the ow and already they have told our dc. I don't have any say in what is told to our dc whether she is there present and if they go away which they have done this weekend with the children. If I complain he says I have to get used to it and he would be more understanding if it was him but ATM I hate them both and would rather the ow had nothing to do with my kids ! When does this start to feel better ?

It gets better in time. However i feel 6 weeks is too soon. I suggest ypu speak with a solicitor to see what you can get put in place. Mediation is a starting point for everyone as it isnt in the childrens best interests to introduce a new partnet so soon.
I'm afraid in the long term he is right. Not saying he's done it the right way and you probably want to curl up in a ball. It's a normal process. Can I ask how old your daughter is. The courts don't take lightly to using the children as tools. X
Keep going I promise it does get easier and when it does god help him as messing with a mother is really not suggestable.
