I don't know who these people are that you referred to, but it sounds like they need to be put in their place. It's one thing to be misguided and another to be inconsiderate of your experience with verbal abuse. Personally, I think you need to sit these people down and explain that you will not tolerate it anymore. How you do that is up to you. But you have to take charge of that situation. If your young and it's your parents doing this, then you may need to seek a mediator to help bring the point home. It's different when living in someone else's home.
