I'll give you my preferences for each:
1. Women were responsible for children's education.
2. Respectability involved knowing and using good manners, attending church regularly, and doing some charitable activity.
3. See above.
4. OK
5. The father had to support the family. ("provide for" is also good)
6. take care of
7. Women had the task of managing the house. A Victorian family was a patriarchal unit. (the rest is redundant)
8. ... one of the basic values ...
9. ... the belief in ...
10. One of the highest values was that of responsibility. (note the spelling)
