A pejorative label for overprotective, overgrown adults who cling to the comfort and safety of their metaphorical 'crib'—refusing to face discomfort, risk, or the real world. Often applied to those infantilized by modern conveniences, social coddling, or digital escapism, unable or unwilling to wean themselves off the soft confines of their echo chambers and comfort zones.
