Jerk inside with dad, getting scorned (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

disdained

'scorned' is the definition.
('disdain' can be a synonym of 'scorn')

'jerk inside with dad' is the wordplay.
'jerk' indicates anagramming the letters.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'inside' after 'dad' is 'dadinside'.
'dadinside' with letters rearranged gives 'DISDAINED'.

'getting' acts as a link.

(Another definition for disdained that I've seen is " Scorned".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
