I am from TX and here the punishment is generally dependant upon the reason for the charge. It can range from anywhere from 6 months to 20 years in prison. They will take into account what happened, the frequency in which it happens and why it happened. If it was from a DUI then you will probably be charged with a state jail felony. If you where using, manufacturing or selling drugs in the presence of a child you are looking at a more serious charge. In my opinion if you have been charged with this offense you should cooperate with CPS and do your best to show the court you are doing your best to become a better parent to minimize the risk.
