Should I Call Child Services in This Case?

Question by Danielle B: should I call child services in this case?
i was with my ex of 7 months but broke up with him 2 days ago because he has a weed addiction and a party problem (i.e. he decides he wants to drink and doesn’t stop even beyond being smashed – this is maybe once every month).
his daughter is 4 years old. he cheated on his drug test to win sole custody. she has already asked me if she can drink beer when she turns 5 and the father refuses to admit that when she asks about weed, it will be a problem. at five years old! he is always high around her and brings weed into her presence, but his justification is that she “never sees it” (i guess he hasn’t met any other 4 year olds in his life) and she hasn’t asked about weed YET.
she cannot live with her mom, the mother is in florida and we live in virginia and the mother had to go to a psych ward.
