Very fine rhetoric here with excellent questions to ponder.
The short answer is no, because it is impossible.
Philosophically, as one who overcame addiction (I consider myself a veteran of the Crack War as I had a 8 year run ending in 1994), I say no resoundingly. I am a libertarian. I believe free people have the agency and right to harm themselves. Most of the time I harmed no one but myself. However, in the end this was no longer true and the law handled that like it should have. Now if I had a child at the time, I would have hurt him with my selfish behavior and that is another thing.
Fine lines here.
