What's not fair is putting your mother in a position of responsibility for your stepdad. No one can "make" someone get help, and even if she did, it probably wouldn't do any good because it would be her idea instead of his.

It is completely understandable that you don't want your daughter to be around him, though. So, maybe you can come up with a plan where your daughter can spend time with your mom away from your stepdad.
