"Cradle-snatching" có từ cradle là cái nôi, snatching là giật lấy, vồ lấy -> nghĩa là có quan hệ tình cảm, yêu người ít tuổi hơn, 'khi anh vào đại học, em mới học mẫu giáo' :D
Ví dụ
“When people hear I have two girlfriends they always go, ‘Well done,’ but when they hear about the age gap (rào cản) they imply it’s not OK, as if I am cradle snatching. “It’s not been as direct as saying ‘you’re a monster.’
People think of Agnes as a cradle-snatching yokel (người nông thôn, quê mùa) who married a younger man but her family was wealthy (giàu có), they had a successful sheep farm.
Janice says “it was cradle-snatching” since he is seven years older than her, to which he responds, “I think women like men in uniform (đồng phục). I used to be a bus driver with Auckland Transport in those days and had a good uniform that she probably fell in love with.”
