Hello. You did not say what text this question refers to, which makes it impossible to answer. However I can help you by showing the concept of anecdote and the possible reasons why it is used.

The anecdote is a short narrative that has a playful and amusing character and its main objective is to provoke comic relief in a narrative, or to satirize a situation and show concepts in a fun way.

Probably in the text to which the question refers, the anecdote serves to convey a comic relief in the text, in addition to showing a criticism, in a light and fun way to the complaining behavior of the husband.

B. illustrate the author's claim regarding the value of devoting oneself to one's children.

In her commencement speech at Wellesley College, First Lady Barbara Bush makes a point of highlighting the importance of spending time with our family. According to the First Lady, what matters most for the success of society is not what takes place in the White House, but what takes place in people's houses. We must hug, read, and talk to our kids.To illustrate the importance of that, the First Lady tells an anecdote - a short narrative of an amusing incident - about a husband. This husband refers to taking care of his own children as "babysitting". His wife quickly corrects him: if it's your own kids, it's not called babysitting.With that, the First Lady shows the value of devotingourselves to our children. Children are not a chore: they are a part of our lives. Parents should make a point of spending time with them and raising them well.
