Chide a child (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scold

'chide a child' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for scold that I've seen before include "Upbraid" , "Chide - fishwife" , "Censure, berate" , "Chide - nag" , "Castigate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and the Universal.
