How do I keep certain things away from family on Facebook?

How do I keep certain things away from family on Facebook?
You see, I wish Facebook were kinda like only a friend thing. But extended family members seem to enjoy friending me. Some I don't mind.....like the very few that I'm close with (only 3) or just don't care (like a couple cousins my age added me). With the cousins, I don't care if they see everything.....with the other three, I would hide some stuff but not all.

Then there's the other awkward six family members who friended me. Like, the ones who I met once in my life when I was seven and never saw again, or my aunt/uncle who have brainwashed their children (who all have Facebooks and friended me) into their political agenda and whom I do not particularly want trolling around my Facebook page.

is there a way I can limit the six family members from seeing anything on my profile?

And for the other three, how can I make it so they only see some things? I just need my grandma to stop commenting on all my pictures basically and to hide certain things from my aunt and uncle, but not all.

If you want to keep certain things away from your family on Facebook, don't post them on Facebook.

go to your account settings or either privacy settings on your account....you can make it to where...you can type in the names of the people that you don't want to see your status updates....and if you go to your photo albums you can customize who you don't want to see your pictures...I've done this too, because of nosey family lol...

You put them in a group and then when you post things you do not want them to see you simply block them from that group. They will never even know what their missing. If you want to do this post by post then you will have to exclude this group every time but you can also change it in your custom privacy settings so they can't see anything you post ever.
