yah, kind of like being talked down to.
The person doing the scolding is acting like a parent or teacher or person in authority.
It's not a conversation between two adults....
One has an elevated sense of self importance.
I work with someone who is a scolder...
you know a finger wagger.
When she scolds me I feel angry and ashamed.
No matter what the issue was.Ja*
