Yes. There have been several papers done showing that children of addicts are prone to addiction themselves. For example, a parent may be an alcoholic, and you may have an addiction to gambling.
I am the child of an alcoholic with an alcoholic sister & brother.
Remember addictive behaviours include sex addiction, shopping, gambling, eating, caffeine, shoplifting and others
