You can use ใใใพใ only for ใใใor your family.
On the other hand, you can't use ใใใพใ for ใใใ or your family.

Basically, imagine your acquaintances as a series of concentric rings around you. You're at the centre, then your family in the next ring, close friends next, then general social in-group, then passing acquaintances, then complete strangers, et cetera.
ใใใ is used when the giving occurs in an inwards direction. For example, from a stranger to friend, or from a family member to yourself.
ใใใ is used when the giving is in an outwards direction. For example, yourself to a friend, or a family member to a passing acquaintance.
Similarly, ใใใ can only be used when you empathise more with the receiver than the giver - for example, it's weird to use it if you are the giver. "Fred received a present from me" is ok in English, but unacceptable in Japanese.
