You're making an AWFUL lot of assumptions about this person, and I think that the only lesson your daughter is learning from this is that it's ok to pre-judge people whom you know little about. There are plenty if people out there who had perfectly happy "normal" childhoods who have developed addictions, and pleanty of people who suffered through a terrible childhood and did not develop addictions...strange thread, imho...
