ATLANTA (FOX 5 Atlanta) - Lexi Rabe is just 7 years old. It’s something she reminder her near 280,000 Instagram follower of this weekend in a video by her accompanied by a post by her mother, Jessica, which addressed some online bullying.

The adorable Atlanta area first grader is best known for her role as Tony Stark’s daughter in the Marvel blockbuster “Avengers: Endgame” and recently played young Madison Russell in “Godzilla: King of the Monsters.”

“I mess up sometimes. so, my mom and dad give me tons of talking to and times out. And if I go anywhere and I'm real silly or messed up or anything like that. I'm just 7 years old,” the young star told her fans in the video post.

Her mother made the post because she is concerned about the added pressures social media now puts on celebrities and the fact that some fans don’t understand the barriers of a child actor.

The posts reads:

"I hate that we even have to post this. But yet again Lexi’s getting bullied. And this kind of thing makes it celebrities never want to leave the house never want to meet people. Please keep your opinions to yourself so Lexi can grow up in the free world. She’s a normal human being and she’s a child. We give her a talking and we give her timeouts but we don’t do that in public."

"Sometimes were rushing from place to place stressed like everyone else to get to set on time or work or whatever and we seem a little grumpy. I’m sorry if you see us this way but that’s life! If you ask us for an autograph we always almost say yes. If we happen to be having a bad day that might put us right on the right! We are not perfect! These perfect children are not being given the freedoms and the rights that they should. If your child is so scared to be themselves in public and mess up a little then you’re over parenting. We give our children plenty of rules and boundaries But then give them the freedoms to mess up and learn from their own mistakes."

"They would not be on set an on movies if they weren’t well behaved. Trust me they have no desire to hire kids like that! And there were plenty of children that productions can work with. So if you see us in public and think you have the right to judge. Wait. Number one until you have children of your own, and Number two realize that we’re not perfect and we’re not claiming to be! But just try to realize the different strokes for different folks what you do with your kids may work for you and what I do with my kids works well for me. My children love me and respect me even if they act out sometimes. Thank you! Jessica!"

The Instagram post has gained close to 300,000 comments as of Wednesday.
