Are you willing to fight for custoday? She WILL get attachment disorders if she is passed from person to person.
Warning: Dad will have the priority over you. Can you talk to him about it? It doesn't sound like he is very invested in her and doesn't see her much. Maybe he will let you have custody if he can visit her or have visitation. Ditto for daughter. Unless she is a proven danger to her child, and caught using drugs, you have an uphill battle. On the plus side, if you can afford a lawyer and they can't, you have an advantage. You need to start documenting the signs of abuse from Dad and Mom. The court will want proof. Unfortunately, everyone's word, without proof, is just hearsay. But I'd go for it anyway. He needs you. You have a chance if he has been in your care for six months. THEN you, as a grandparent do matter. Start a paper trail. Did you call the police on your daughter so there is a record of illegal behavior? Any other police calls, such as her attacking you or the child? What about Dad? Has she been arrested for amphetymine abuse? Has he? My son just finished a custody battle and won and it is all about that paper trail.
I would not want daughter living at home again and she is obviously and sadly not able to be the mother that your grand needs.
