In literature the term "cosset" is often employed to evoke an image of tender, deliberate care—whether that care is bestowed upon a vulnerable animal, a young child, or even an adult in need of comfort. Writers use the verb to imply not only physical pampering, as when a beloved lamb or calf is raised with attentive affection [1, 2], but also to offer a subtle critique of overindulgence, suggesting that constant coddling might undermine natural strength or self-sufficiency [3, 4]. At times the word functions both as an expression of fondness and as a sardonic commentary on those who are excessively nurtured and thereby less resilient [5, 6].
