Is heredity a poor, good, or reasonable excuse for poor behavior?

I was watching “Intervention” and during the intervention this dad said:

(Some what)
“Well alcoholism does run in the family. I am one, my dad was one, and his dad. So is it my daughters fault if she has an addiction”

If a person with addiction in their family becomes addicted is it their fault. Is it right to expect people to not do things they are strongly born to do?
