You haven't defined "the ministry". The government can take a child away from a parent who engages in drug abuse. A substance abuser is not a good parent. Their drug abuse clouds their judgment and causes them to neglect their child's needs. They cannot monitor their child's safety and their children usually face too much responsibility for their age. The state can take custody and place the child in a safe environment.
You should be aware that it is not the actual drug use alone that is the issue but the effect it has on the parent's ability to raise the child. If your drug use is reported to the courts or Child Protective Services you would be ordered to submit to a drug test. You would test positive. The court would intrude into your life and take legal control of your child.
