I hate being patronized

LookingToSee —

Thats pretty much it. I hate being patronized. And this is just a rant. But I'm sure my dear revival friends will find a way to make this blog slightly useful inshaaAllah. I hat ev being patronized by a younger person. And im gettibg old and theres goi ng to be younger people out there smarter than me, or islamically mre religious. So I need to change. But right nw I justget violent imageries when I think abt someone who patronized me whos younger than me.


So anyway. How shld I remedy to this? And how do I tell the person to stop patronizing me? (without slamming their head against a wall...)

OK here's a confession of a man who's far from perfect. I also hate being patronized and I hate being talked at or treated like I'm stupid. I hate it with a vengeance! 


 


Especially if they're older or younger, but I normally get it from people who are older than me.


I feel like snapping out at them and ordering them to stop. But I ask Allah (swt) to help me keep my cool and react with wisdom.

Because they lack specialist knowledge so you have to dumb stuff down for them.
