Jessica Alba tries to be balanced parent

21st January 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Jessica Alba worries she is ruining her daughters life because she is famous.

The actress has two-year-old daughter Honor with her husband Cash Warren. She loves her job, but continually worries about whether growing up in the spotlight will adversely affect the little girl. Jessica and Cash try to keep Honor out of the limelight as much as possible, but the actress knows the lifestyle will still have a lasting impact on her.

I don't know if its healthy, she admitted. It's a tough balance. It's tough to figure out if you're going to ruin your kid for the rest of their life by the decisions you're making.

The 29-year-old joked she firmly expects Honor to spend time with a counsellor when she is older as a result of her upbringing.

Jessica would hate for Honor to grow up thinking she is entitled to a good job or a certain way of life just because she has famous parents, so combats that by giving her strict rules.

I try to do the best I can and try to balance as much as I can between work and family and giving her boundaries but also letting her make her own decisions. This is definitely therapy material! I just know it!" she laughed. (C) Cover Media
