In what way does the conversation between lady macduff and her son serve as comic relief act 4

The conversation between Lady Macduff and her son is comedic because he provides a commentary on her life that is far beyond his years. His mother's surprise at his bluntness, when he turns the conversation around onto her (she says "what wilt thou do for a father?" and he replies "nay how will you do for a husband") she is surprised and the mood is lightened a bit from their worry and anger about Macduff's leaving. The boy is witty and bold, which makes his mother (and the audience) laugh.
