In KY, you can legally tape phone conversations, as long as one party knows they're being taped. SO, if ex is calling and harassing you, making threats, promising you stuff and taking it back, all you need to do is start taping her calls to you. There is info on this site about how to tape/transcribe a call. Don't tape her conversations with your child, though! Make sure you stay calm when you're taping her; don't lose your temper, just let her dig her own grave. We just put the tape recorder up to the earpiece and turn the phone volume up high, because ours is suspicious when we put her on speaker phone. Also, you need to get evidence that she was arrested for drugs, etc. (and make sure YOU can pass a drug test if you are going to use "drug use" as an argument). Do you take child to Dr/dentist/etc? Get child's medical records---they will probably say "Child is here today with father" in the log for each time you took her. Also receipts for when you took her.
I wouldn't file until you have a whole lot of evidence that you are the better parent. Why risk it, when you can wait a few months and know for sure you will win. Your daughter is worth it.
