The actress, who started her career as a child star on "Game of Thrones", recently sat down with Flaunt magazine, where she admitted to being concerned about the children's well-being based on her own experience.

"Social media was just really becoming a big thing after I started on 'Game of Thrones,' so I got a couple of years of peace and quiet and then I had to adjust. It had such a profound impact on my mental health, like more than I could tell you. It almost destroyed me on numerous occasions." said Turner, who played Sansa Stark in all seven seasons of the hit HBO show.

She continued, "I look at the kids who are about to be in the new 'Harry Potter' and I just want to give them a hug and say, 'Look, it's going to be okay but don't go anywhere near [social media]. Stay friends with your home friends, keep living at home with your family, make sure your parents are your chaperones.' It's so important to have that grounding adjacent to the big, crazy stuff that you do."

HBO has cast numerous child actors for the new series, which include Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton and Alastair Stout as Harry, Hermione and Ron.
