They may be friends/family but if you are accepting payments for goods from them then you are a seller and should be using the goods/services option.

The friends/family option is only for sending 'gifts' of money to family/friends for example birthday money or paying them back money owed etc.

If you are using that option for accepting payments and providing goods in return and using that option then you are using it to avoid paying your paypal fee and so you get banned when paypal finds out.
