has nothing to do with the number of daughters, sexist is sexist, numbers don't have anything to do with that.
but, how come having 4 daughters a reason for your dad to not having high expectation on you?

いい成績取れるっと思ったけど、こんなにいい成績には期待しなかった感じかもね
でもお父さんは、もともとちょっと差別待遇な人間なの
私の家族ではもう一人のおねえちゃん以外は、みんなあんまり勉強できなかったんです 男の子たちほど

He expected me to take good results, but I don't think she expected this high
But still, my father is naturally a little sexist
But in my family apart from one other sister, no one studied much Even the boys
What I'm trying to say is therefore, it is quite fair of him not to have expected much >.<

Lower expectation is better than high. When disappointed, it will not be as sad.

This one is also really interesting too: ちょっと・・・(=chotto) +あいまい表現(=Aimai hyougen) ambiguous expressions | Maggie Sensei I

PS - If you try to click the links to different lessons, for some reason they're all broken for me. But I've found that removing "www." and "/jp/" from the URL will make the links work.

It sounds really awkward if you translate it literally, so maybe something like this? "In order to get ShinShin and LiLi to meet and reproduce, from the sixth they will stop allowing visitors."

ため = for, in order to, for the purpose of, etc.
してもらう = to recieve something (like a favor) from someone

Giving/receiving verb usage is pretty complicated in Japan if you get into it. もらう is just one of several verbs that means "recieve". The key thing is that it doesn't indicate who is receiving the favor, so you can use it for third parties. There's another common verb (くれる) that you can only use if you personally received something. On top of that, all of them have several different levels of politeness too!
Omg.

I like your translation too. Makes more sense.

A match making sounds more natural to me.

Have you been using it? How do you like it?
I renewed my subscription maybe.. a month or so ago. I had about 280 or so reviews to do so I made myself knock them all out. But then I had a long weekend and forgot about them again. So it went to 100. But I got them down again. Just need to stay on it. Trying to get them down to a decent level so I can actually move forward on the next level.

I found that article too, but I didn't bother reading it I like it a lot better than trying to struggle with kanji on my own I'm still on level 2 I'll try to upgrade after my dad comes home I'm afraid that he might say no XD
