Why would you not be held accountable? If you are judged incompetent or unwilling to behave in a manner that others find dependable, you are dealt with accordingly--usually incarceration, restraint, compulsory medication, standing in the corner, no allowance, etc. Some people behave "correctly" or "normally" in order to gain the approval of others and/or avoid punishment. If you do not monitor your own behavior in a responsible way, then you are held accountable by your peers or by authorities.
The problem is that, according with determinism line of thought, we could not have done otherwise. We can not choose to monitor our own behavior in a responsible way.
We are either compelled by our will to do it, or not. There is no choice involved. We are no more responsible for our actions than the second piece of a falling set of dominoes is. In determinism, we are not moral agents.
