Ryder: 'I'd swap acting for a family'

Winona Ryder has claimed that she would choose to quit acting if she ever decided to have children.

The actress said that she believes that children would be so much work that she would be forced to give up her career in order to look after them properly.

"I think if I had a child, I would," Ryder said, according to Female First. "I think I would just want to be a mum.

"And I've seen from my brother and sister-in-law how much work children are so I think I'd want it to be my priority," Ryder added.

The 39-year-old actress claimed last month that she feared that becoming pregnant would end her acting career.

Ryder's latest film role was in the critically acclaimed Darren Aronofsky thriller Black Swan alongside Natalie Portman and Vincent Cassel.
