Lets say I run some scam against tax-preparation companies and get away with millions over some months but are caught red-handed. Clearly I am not dangerous to society, but at the same time I can never really work of the money. Would you still put me in the community program?
Or take the other case, I am high on drugs and crash a car with several of my kids in it. At the same time I clearly didn't mean to harm them - you wouldn't have problem with me having the kids if I wasn't on drugs. Assume further (because this is often the case) that I skip out of rehab. What would you do with me?

What would you do with me? Everything has to be done in the children's best interest. In this situation hypothetical_tomjen3 has put their children in danger. This means any approach covers several points: 1) Firm reminder that continued use of drugs while you're supposed to be in control of the children means the state is left with little option but to remove the children from you 2) Removal of the children can be avoided if you comply with rehab 3) Provide good quality, evidence based rehab 4) Provide access to the children (with supervision if needed) 5) Remove driving licence for a year as a punishment. The driving licence can only be regained after successfully completing rehab with clean tests for some time. This particular example you've given is a public health problem, not a criminal justice problem.
