Firstly, the Torah commands us to have children. And as the Sages put it, "If you do not have progeny, upon what will God's presence dwell? On sticks and stones?"
Secondly, the family is the most basic unit of a community or an entire people. And it is the most immediate and convenient context for handing down the Torah-traditions.
This is a matter of opinion. Here's mine: From the beginning of the Jewish people as an independent nation/culture, the attitude toward adherence to the divine law has been, in their own words: "We will do and we will listen." (See Exodus 24:7 for an example.) The sequence is significant ... 'do' first, and then 'listen'. This is taken to mean that the basic Jewish attitude is to practice the commandments and develop the habits first, even before undertaking the process of seeking to understand the reasoning behind them. As a result, the concept that "We'll let our kids see and learn what it's about, when they're old enough to understand, and then let them make their own choice." is not the historical Jewish approach. Rather, the traditional approach is to 'train' children in the ways of Jewish life and practice from the beginning, well before they can become 'educated'. This is the practical fulfillment of the biblically-based attitude that the 'doing' should occur even before the 'listening'. Which leads to the environment in which the earliest training of the youngest takes place: within the family structure. That's where the child observes and absorbs the fundamental roles of the adult female and the adult male in Judaism, and synchs up with the Jewish rhythms of the week, the Sabbath, and the holidays. Without the family, Judaism doesn't last very long. That's why it's important.

As a trope, "Jewish guilt" only came onto the world stage in the 19th century with increasing secular readership of Jew-written novels and plays. As an actual construct in Jewish relationships, the deep-seated desire of Jewish children to please their mother and the strong, sustained way that mothers get their children to perform their duties have been hallmarks of the Jewish family for generations. It helped to maintain strong family units and solidify observance of Jewish Law.
