Definición

  • “Early ripe, early rot” is a piece of folklore and educational jargon that suggests too early an intervention for the gifted will not help them and may actually cause them long-term harm. This proverbial saying is often dismissed as anti-intellectualism, yet there is some truth to this claim. [Source: Encyclopedia of Giftedness, Creativity, and Talent; Early Ripe, Early Rot]
