to marry or date someone who is much younger than oneself

Author’s comment

I hear that Bill is dating Ann. Isn't that sort of robbing the cradle? She's much younger than he is.

Uncle Bill—who is nearly eighty—married a thirty-year-old woman. That is really robbing the cradle.

    Я слышал, что Билл ухаживает за Анной. Разве это не означает "обокрасть колыбель"? Она ведь намного младше его. Дядюшка Билл, которому уже почти 80, женился на 30-летней девушке. Это уж действительно, как говорится, "обокрасть колыбель".
