Can children born after drug use be kept?

Patient's question:

Can a couple with drug addiction keep the child after finding out they stopped using drugs 37 days after an accidental pregnancy? They really want the child.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, for individuals who have been using methamphetamine for a long time, we recommend that they must stop using drugs for at least six months before considering having children. For those who have accidentally used methamphetamine occasionally, it is acceptable to engage in reproductive behavior after one month. Of course, this also applies to drugs like yaba and mahuang. In fact, the harm caused by yaba is the same as that of methamphetamine, and the reactions after consumption are also similar. Both are classified as the same type of psychoactive drugs.
