Can sharing your games with a family member get your account banned?

One of my siblings wants to play on my account, and i was wondering if i could just trust there accounts. The problem is i don't trust him enuf not to do anything stupid like hack/cheat. I was wondering could they get my account banned if they cheat on there account playing my game. This is using the family sharing feature.

Will I be punished for any cheating or fraud conducted by other users while playing my games?

Your Family Library Sharing privileges may be revoked and your account may also be VAC banned if your library is used by others to conduct cheating or fraud. Additionally, VAC-banned games cannot be shared. We recommend you only authorize familiar computers you know to be secure. And as always, never give your password to anyone.

Used by others? What if I share my library and then they use that game in their library and then cheat? Will I still get banned?

If they own their own copy you won't get banned as you can't share a game with someone that already owns it.

What if they don't own the game and I share the game with them?

Then you can get banned too if they use your copy of a game to cheat in it.
