Use unique Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Apple ID: > here, do not share Apple ID

Also make sure in Send & Receive > only your phone number and email address(es) are listed

Get everyone another, unique AppleID to use just with iMessages and/or iCloud. Everyone can have multiple AppleID's and use their own unique one for services like iMessage.
