petronize

When you pet your dog with your foot and the affection is not appreciated as genuine affection.

Your dog: Hey man, don't pet me with your foot; Don't just petronize me! I know it's not your hand. Give me the goods!

Patronize

To treat someone as inferior as a result of some sort of help they accepted from you and to feel you have right to teach, control, or check on them. Clearly not a noble behavior.

B:Probably never! You know..people like them will feel like that with their children forever..
