i was almost positive it's not possible for the baby to be affected if only the father uses. i googled it and the answer is no it is not affected. sperm has nothing to do with it or damage to the fetus. this is from wiki answers

Other than 'addictiveness' has a tendency to pass from one generation to the next (and to my knowledge it's not been proven whether that's from genetics or upbringing), no, the genetic code in the sperm is not affected by crack.
