    The answer is displacement.

    Explanation:

    Under this mechanism, people direct their emotions to an object or person that didn't provoke their reaction in the first place. This way we can satisfy our impulse without the negative consequences.

    Being angry at a child is a perfect example of displacement. Most of the times this reaction is unconscious.
