Miss Manners: The store manager berated me after my run-in with a noisy child

I walked away and continued my shopping. A few minutes later, the store manager stopped by to tell me that disrespecting children was against store policy and would not be tolerated. She referred me to the company website, but of course, I could find no such policy statement. Why must members of the public be disrespected by unruly, misbehaving, noisy children, who are then defended by adults who should know better?
