Cross boundaries
Communicate about your boundaries and discuss the consequences that come after violating them. If some people push your boundaries too often, say ‘goodbye,’ and make sure they understand your reasons for acting that way. Don’t give people the negative attention they hope for and control your emotions.
Overly judgemental
You don’t need people who constantly judge your life choices. Listen to what they have to say, but make sure they realize that you don’t like to judge others or be judged.
Help those people understand that they are doing a bad thing. Be their best example. Share articles about people who have done good to society or tell your judging friends or family members that you have made a donation.
When one of your relatives criticizes you all the time, help them understand how you feel. What are their motives? If they keep doing that, just step aside and stay away from them.
They never apologize

They are in trouble all the time

They are not consistent
If some of your relatives make you feel like you are waling on eggshells, tell them how you feel. Letting someone manipulate and control you is the worst thing you can do. Acknowledge their problem, and express yourself. We all deserve better.
Tell them how you expect to be treated. If they cross the boundary, explain their mistake and share your feelings.
Selfish people
Reciprocation is an important part of every relationship. Having selfish people around you doesn’t really help much. Some people are just too focused on themselves and aren’t even aware of that. Self-centered people often take you for granted and even walk all over you.
Spend more time with people who support and take care of you. Some people may need a hand in that one, and you are here to help them realize their mistake. You can sometimes turn a toxic relationship into something great. Don’t let others disrespect you and tell them how you want to be treated.
