phenols dont give protonation easily bcoz of partial double bond due to resonance

Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.

The lone pair of electrons on oxygen is involved in resonance with benzene ring hence the oxygen atom carryies slight positive charge thus it cannot be attacked by proton.
