过度呵护的；娇生惯养的 (Overprotected and Pampered):

(他从小娇生惯养，在家里从来不需要动手做任何事。)Critics argue that modern parenting styles produce coddled youth who are unprepared for the challenges of adulthood. (批评者认为，现代育儿方式造就了娇生惯养的年轻人，他们无法应对成年后的挑战。)（鸡蛋）用温水慢煮的 (Cooked Gently in Water Below Boiling Point):

(温泉蛋需要精确的温度控制才能达到完美的质地。)词源与关联： "Coddled" 源自动词 "coddle"。其词源可能与古英语或方言词汇有关，意指“温柔地煮”或“溺爱”。其烹饪含义（温和地煮）是其更早、更字面的意义，后来引申出比喻义（过度温柔地对待人，即溺爱）。因此，无论是形容人还是鸡蛋，"coddled" 都强调了“被极其温和、小心地对待”这一核心概念，只是对象和结果不同。
