to teach readers how goats are fed and cared for
to persuade children to be wary of strangers bearing gifts
to entertain readers with a story about a foolish goatherd

The answer is: "to educate children about how to treat others."

Explanation:

"The Goathered and the Wild Goats" is one of Aesop's Fables. Being a fable,  the story implies a moral lesson that the reader should learn. In the story, the primary purpose is "to educate children about how to treat others."

In the story, the goathered treated the "wild goats" better than his old herd because he was after the opportunity of gaining more if they stayed. In the end, when the storm passed, the wild goats ran away despite his good treatment on them. This was because the wild goats knew his intention just by observing his behavior.

When it comes to treating people, it is very important to treat everyone fairly even if you cannot benefit from that person. Doing this can instill trust and respect on your end. If you only treat one group fairly than another group, then the other group will not trust you anymore, just as what happened to the goathered.
