Los Angeles, Dec 25 || “Stranger Things” star Noah Schnapp, who has been in the career as a child actor for nearly a decade, believes child actors need therapy as he calls it an “abnormal life.”
The actor recently revealed that after thinking he didn’t need it as a “happy-go-lucky kid,” he’s since gone to therapy, which he agrees with singer-actress Ariana Grande that it should be mandatory for children in their line of work, reports.
“It’s hard to grow up in the public eye. You don’t know yourself, you haven’t figured anything out, and now you’re expected to know everything and have all the answers,” ,” Schnapp told.
Schnapp added, “I was constantly saying the wrong things or being embarrassed by not taking certain things seriously that I should’ve, and then that lives on forever. People grow and learn, and to do that publicly is not easy.”
Debuting its series finale on New Year’s Eve, Schnapp was 11 when filming Season 1 of
“Stranger Things”, which kicked off its five-season run in 2016.
