Rowling also added that volunteering at an orphanage can be contributing to the harm of children.
“I would say to any 18- or 19 year-old who wants to volunteer, go volunteer in a community-based project, do your research, make sure you know what you’re doing, make sure you’re really making a difference, because you could — with the best intentions — be propping up a system that is harming children,” the author explained.
