If you are depending on them for accommodation, you have to observe the rules they set for living in their house. If you don’t like it you have to either find somewhere else to live or tolerate it until you are able to move out. You could try talking things through with your cousins, you may be able to work things out.

next time they try to tell you how to live, remind them that your not their daughter and they don’t get to tell you what to do. Be firm and dont let them push you around.
