No. Your family should not be using the same Apple ID. Everyone should have their own Apple ID.

iCloud Photos on My iPhone How can I set up iCloud Photos so that only photos I have taken with MY iPhone appear when I turn on the iCloud feature? I am inundated with silly photos taken by my teenage daughter, but want my own photos available on my iPhone (and trying to cull her thousands of pics is a real problem). Thanks for your help.

I don't want my iCloud photos on my new iPad I don't want my iCloud photos on my new iPad. I share an iPad, and I have iCloud to store my iphone photos but I do NOT want my cloud photos showing up on the shared iPad even when I'm logged in. My iPad already synced my iCloud photos and I don't know how to take them off. Even when I logout of Apple ID on the iPad they are still showing in the photos app even when other people log into the iPad with their Apple ID. Why???
