Beautiful family. When I first saw it, I felt a pang of pity for your girls, having to grow up with all those boys!  My three sisters have to put up with all seven of us boys, and that is a  better left closed. 
Sir, I highly doubt that you need any advice as a father, from someone as young and inexpierenced as me, but if I could presume upon you for a second: A man's views and treatment of women depend on how he was raised to treat his sister/s. Demand respect, protectiveness, and adoration for your daughters from your sons, and demand modesty and mutual respect from your girls. If you want to see a home where the/my parents just missed some of those basic points, you're invited over for a few days to my house.
