Make fun of them right back. Find something about each of them that they're sensitive about and FIRE AWAY. They only pick on you because you don't talk back. Give them a taste of their own medicine.
As for the little one, he's still young...So if you just decide to have fun with him he'll forget about teasing you. Truthfully, there is no nice way of getting him to leave you alone...

Talk with your parents and tell them that you prefer to spend the day somewhere else if your cousins are coming over. You shouldn't have to put up with their BS, and they shouldn't force you to be around them. I don't know if their teasing is good-natured or not, but if you don't like it, that's reason enough not to tolerate them.

For them to get the message, be sure to leave the house just as they're arriving and be sure to tell them that you're going to do something really cool that they would like to do themselves. Then tell them why you've made other plans for the day. No gloating or whining, just the facts. Be sure their parents hear it all, too. Be sure to stay away the entire time they're there. They should get the hint. Just because people are family doesn't give them the right to bully you.

Stick up for your rights and demand respectful treatment.

I'm not sure what your age is or the ages of your cousins but for some reason, they feel that teasing you is still hilarious. It just sounds like no one has had a "sit-down" with them to let them know that what they say is inappropriate and hurtful, esp for their ages now. I'm not sure if you have anyone to stick up for you, but if not, this will be in your own hands. Tell them in a serious, calm and mature manner how it makes you feel when they "annoy" you and that you don't appreciate it. Who knows, they may not know that they're hurting your feelings at all because you've been "taking it" for so many years. Unfortunately, it's habit for them so they may not be aware. It's possible that after the "sit down" for them to make fun of you even more, but just simply tell them that if they can't accept your simple request, they're no longer welcome over to your place. Whatever hard feelings they have towards the situation will be healed with time, but you're just going to have to tell them how their words make you feel. Hate to sound like "dr. phil", but it's the grown up way to handle things in a not so grown up situation. Good luck!

The 5 year old is just a little kid, your other cousins, well, a loser always tries to make someone else feel bad. There is one conclusion that I made in life that really changed my life. Just because someone is "related" to you doesn't mean you have to love or like them. You can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends. Pick good friends and forget those cousins. Don't share anything else with those creeps.

Sounds like you're on the right track... just ignore them. It's sounds like you're too young to hop into the car and stay in a hotel or at a freinds 'til they jet. I sympathize with you and I was picked on when I was young, almost all throughout high school. You sound like a compassionate person when you say you don't want the 5 year old to cry, so you're cool in my book! Maybe stay close to your mom or dad until they blow out of your house? I'll say a prayer for you!

1.) Find out what he really enjoys that is better than being with you. Make that one thing known to him and he will likely do it.

2.) You just have to be really boring when he's around you. A 5 year-old won't stick around for long if you are literally doing NOTHING.

3.) Hide.

4.) Tell his mother that you'd like some time to yourself. She should provide alternatives for him.

P.S. Try to enjoy Christmas. :p

I have cousins like that. Or atleast i did but now we've all grown up. I think only time will make them stop. If they're like what i think they are if you try to explain to them that it hurts you, they'll make fun of you more. Just try really hard to ignore them. If that doesn't work just show that you are mad, not hurt.

If you can get the 5 year old occupied in an activity that will keep him busy, like building something or drawing, he won't follow you. If he's busy, he'll be quiet and not bother you.

man your cousins sound like real jerks. why would they say all those things? you should try and become friends with them. but if they really make it hard, then just really tell them off. just curse and insult the hell out of them. or just tlk to them, try to find out y they always do this.
