The mother must bring the father's drug use to the attention of the court in order to have him deemed an unfit parent or to curtail his visitation rights so the child is not endangered while in her father's care. The court can stop visits or require supervised visits.

I think you have to process a case through the courts to issue supervised visitation.
Supervised
In a situation such as this, the custodial parent should oppose visitation or, if that fails, ask for supervised visitation.
In the US, visitation is not optional. The only way a court would deny a parent visitation is if there is a very valid reason for it (ie alcohol, drugs, abuse, etc), and even then they would likely get supervised visitation.
You need to file an emergency change of custody with supervised visitation. see links below
Yes and no. Having a record or it does not mean it's still a problem. Since being fatherless is far more damaging, if there is a concern, set supervised visitation for a designated period of time with random drug tests. see link
Only by order of the court, and even than, there should still be at least supervised visitation.
You need a lawyer and a court ruling. Not opinions from strangers.
If the reference is to the mother, than visitation should be modified to supervised, than yes.
If she is found to be unfit or addicted to drugs she could lose custody. Additionally, if she refuses to give the father visitation the judge could find her in contempt and change custody to the father.
Drugs has its own uses positively, but if it's use abnormally, it can cause death and hazards on the general public. Consumption of drugs are supervised by licensed medical doctor.
It's highly unlikely that custodial rights would even be considered. However, courts seldom refuse visitation rights unless there is evidence of abuse or neglect on the part of the requesting parent. If there is not a court order terminating parental rights due to abandonment or another such issue, the parent will likely be granted visitation. It is quite possible, the court would order supervised visitation for a specified length of time. A lot depends on the reason for non-contact with the child. Courts tend to leave things as they are and not make drastic changes in children's lives unless it is what they want and better for them in the long run. yes, you can get visitation and/or custody but again, it depends on what kept you away (drugs, jail, etc.).
It's simple, don't take drugs in the first place then you won't have to worry about it.
