Scolds, reprimands (7)
I believe the answer is:
rebukes
This clue is a double definition.
'scolds' is the first definition.
('rebuke' can be a synonym of 'scold')
'reprimands' is the second definition.
('rebuke' can be a synonym of 'reprimand')
(Other definitions for rebukes that I've seen before include "Admonishes, chides" , "Strong reprimands" , "Expresses sharp disapproval" , "Admonishes sharply or severely" .)
