Zoe Saldana will raise her children in a way similar to her own upbringing.
The 36-year-old actress is reportedly expecting twins with her husband Marco Perego, whom she married in a secret ceremony in London last year, and she admits she'll probably instil in them most of the same rules her parents taught her as a child.
She said: "I think it's inevitable that we end up like our parents. I hope that I inherit the good things and not the things that I could have lived without as a child. There are things about my mom that obviously I have to raise my children with, but there are also things about our Latino culture - that ancient traditionalism - that we'll never do to our children.
"That thing about, 'You're not friends with your kids, kids should fear you.' Your daughter needs to call you a friend. It's not the military, you're not training soldiers to send off to the f**king war."
The brunette beauty - who lost her father Aridio in a car crash when she was just nine years old - developed a strong bond with her mother as a youngster and they still see a lot of each other now, although she drives her crazy sometimes.
She told the Sunday Telegraph newspaper: "My mother starts every other sentence with, 'You know what you need to do...' Like 70 times a day. And I'm like, 'What do I need to do?' She asked me not to play Bjork in the car, then the TV is too loud then, 'Did you turn off the stove?' "

Ed Sheeran won't be moving to America permanently.
Despite selling hundreds of thousands of records in the US, the 'Drunk' hitmaker could never leave behind his friends and family in the UK.
Asked if he will make the permanent move to the US, he said: "No, I'm a British boy and I'm really a fish out of water in America. I spend a lot of time there and it is a great
experience for a 23-year-old lad to have, to see all that and experience all that, but all my friends and family live here.
"In America, it's hotel rooms and friend's spare rooms and I'd rather be based in England and take frequent trips to America than move there permanently."
The singer believes maintaining his fame in America is a constant game of "keepy-up" as he credits best friend, and fellow pop star, Taylor Swift and her 2013 'The Red Tour' for his success Stateside.
Ed explained to Britain's HELLO! magazine: "It took me living in America to break America. The American music industry is like a big game of keepy-up - you're keeping a ball up by kicking it and that is your career. The moment you take your foot away, it's harder to get the ball rolling again. You need to keep the hype going.
"America would never have happened for me, or I would never have got the ball up at all if I hadn't gone on tour with Taylor Swift in 2012.
"She texted me and asked did I want to go away with her for six months. I might have been a very successful home grown act here, but not in America, so it was the best text I've ever had from Taylor."

Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello "were super love-dovey" in Miami.
The 'Modern Family' actress and the 'True Blood' star, who started dating earlier this month, spent some quality time with her family in Florida over the weekend and appeared to be smitten with one another.
An eyewitness, who spotted the couple dining with 12 of Sofia's family members at Makoto restaurant on Saturday (26.07.14), told E! News: "They were super lovey-dovey and affectionate. Joe had his hand around her and there were times they were holding hands. They were so cute."
The brunette beauty spent much of the meal translating her family's Spanish conversation into English for the heartthrob.
But the insider added: "Everyone seemed so happy to be around him!"
The couple, who first met at the White House Correspondents Dinner two months ago, stayed at the St. Regis Bal Harbour and also dined at the waterfront bistro Sea Salt & Pepper on Friday (25.07.14).
The 42-year-old Colombian star called off her two-year engagement to Nick Loeb in May.
Joe previously admitted that he had a huge crush on Sofia.
Asked who he'd like to date, he said previously: "Girls that do squats - I love a butt. Sofia Vergara, that's it. She's got that Latin thing going. She's got the butt, she's got curves, she's got a beautiful face, beautiful hair, just gorgeous and she's feisty."

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have reportedly put their Bel Air mansion back on the market.
The couple were thought to have sold the $10 million lavish estate in recent days, but the buyer allegedly backed out of the deal on Monday (28.07.14).
A real estate source told gossip website TMZ.com that an out-of-state-buyer negotiated a deal to purchase the house, which boasts a cinema, gym, indoor basketball court, putting green and sits on three acres, but then had a change of heart.
The client didn't give a reason and simply backed out of the deal despite agreeing to buy the house for almost $3 million less than the original asking price, according to the insider.
The couple - who have three-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe - bought the house for $7 million in 2009, a year after they wed, but are now planning to uproot from the West Coast permanently and live in New York City.
Nick, 33, recently revealed he doesn't want their children to follow in their famous footsteps and is hoping they pursue careers as scientists.
He said: "I don't want my kids to be on TV, that's the only thing [I don't want them to do].
"I just want them to shoot for something else, because it's already in them - like, if you wanna act, be in the school choir. [And] if you wanna sing, be in the school choir.
"A nuclear scientist - can I get one of those? Can I get a heart surgeon in the family?"

Kendall Jenner claims she had to "work even harder" to become a successful model.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star believes it took the fashion world a long time to embrace her because she is also a reality TV star.
The 18-year-old beauty said: "People think that this [success] just came to me. But it didn't. What I have has almost worked against me. I had to work even harder to get where I wanted because people didn't take me seriously as a model. Because of the TV show."
According to The Cut, she also told Love magazine: "I went on castings and some people weren't feeling me because of my name. But it was great when people didn't recognise me. I was like, 'Thank you. Please don't recognise me.'"
Kendall's older half-sister, Kim Kardashian, says the teenager, who has modelled for designer brands, including Chanel, Givenchy and Marc Jacobs, has now proven she is "the real deal."
She said: "She had to work extra hard to gain this respect and to fight for people to see she's serious. Marc Jacobs gave her a real shot and treated her like any other model ... Then Riccardo [Tisci] and Karl [Lagerfeld] gave her a chance and she has proven that she is the real deal."
But Kendall admits she is eager to distance herself from her famous family.
She said: "Kim was invited to a lot of the shows that I was in. She called me before and was like, 'Hey, I was invited to the show, I just wanted to let you know. Do you want me to come?' and I was like, 'No.' "

Jessica Alba admits she is strict with her diet.
The 'Sin City' star, who has daughters, Honor, six, and Haven, three, with husband Cash Warren, says she only enjoys treats occasionally, as she likes being in good shape.
The 33-year-old beauty told E! News: "I don't indulge too much. I mean, I love desserts and stuff, but I don't think that's very sinful."
She added: "I love nachos so much! And tequila."
Jessica toned up for her role in the upcoming sequel by dancing.
She said: "Looking back now, my friends are like, 'Your body was really good when you were dancing. You should do that more often!"
But she added: "I'm too tired for that."
Jessica recently admitted she had a "freak out" when she reached the age of 30, but now feels happier than ever.
She said: "I had this 'Aaagh!' I'm not in my 20s anymore! What does it all mean?' kind of freak-out.
"[But] I feel much better at 33 than I did at 23, even than I did at 30."
The stunning star has an enviable figure, but she hates exercising as she finds it "boring".
She said: "I hate working out. It's boring! I really only did it when I had a job that was physically demanding. But from age 17 until I was 27, all I did were movies that were physically demanding--so all I did was work out all the time!"

Martha Stewart thinks Blake Lively should focus on being an actress.
The 72-year-old lifestyle guru, who helped the 26-year-old actress plan her wedding to Ryan Reynolds in September 2012, thinks it's "stupid" that the blonde beauty is said to be "becoming the next Martha Stewart" because she is launching her own new lifestyle blog and brand, Preserve.
Asked about the 'Savages' star's new venture, Martha said: "Let her try."
She added: "I don't mean that facetiously! I mean, it's stupid, she could be an actress! Why would you want to be me if you could be an actress? I just did a movie yesterday, though -- I can't even tell you about it -- but I want to be Blake Lively."
The duo became firm friends when the couple moved into Martha's neighbourhood in New York, and she thinks they're "very friendly, very nice people."
She told the Huffington Post: "She moved into my neighbourhood a couple of years ago with Ryan -- before they got married, they bought a house right around the corner from my house. And they started to come over, not to borrow sugar, but just as friends."
But she was surprised by how reserved the former 'Gossip Girl' star is in real life.
She said: "In a way, [Blake's] kind of shy -- not shy on the screen, at all, if you've seen any of Blake's movies -- but very shy in person. But she's a baker and a homemaker and now she's starting her own blog [Preserve] ... I haven't seen it yet."
Blake recently claimed her wedding "was becoming a disaster" before she and Ryan asked her "idol" Martha to oversee the event in South Carolina.
The 'Age of Adaline' star also admitted she had no problem being compared to Martha or Gwyneth Paltrow's website Goop.
She said: "I'm always the first person to defend Gwyneth Paltrow. Or any woman in a position of power, like Martha Stewart or Oprah, who gets burned because they have paved the path for so many other women who are doing something they believe in."

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are planning to get married next July.
The couple, who got engaged earlier this year and are expecting their first child, have reportedly set a date for their wedding next summer, as they want to get acquainted with their baby girl before they tie the knot.
A source close to the former 'That 70s Show' co-stars told gossip website RadarOnline.com: "The wedding will be next July. They want to focus on their daughter first and having it next summer seems logical."
The 36-year-old 'Two and a Half Men' actor's family are very excited about his upcoming nuptials to the 'Black Swan' star, 30.
The insider said: "Ashton's parents are very traditional and they love Mila. They got famous together, so she keeps Ashton grounded and vice-versa."
The couple are eager to have a very small wedding, with just a small number of close friends and family members.
The source said: "They won't have a big production but it will be elaborate. The wedding party will consist of the cast of 'That 70s Show,' as they are all very close. They still hang out with the original cast all the time. Most likely Danny Masterson will be the best man because him and Ashton are like brothers."
The couple, who started dating in 2012, also hope to have a big family in the future.
The insider explained: "They both want a large family and want to start on their next kid shortly after they tie the knot. They are soul mates and know that they will be together forever."

Johnny McDaid and Courteney Cox received several engagement presents in his native Northern Ireland.
The newly-engaged couple were given complimentary souvenirs by excited fans in the city of Derry while exploring the Snow Patrol rocker's hometown with the 50-year-old actress' 10-year-old daughter, Coco Arquette, on Thursday (24.07.14).
The trio reportedly received unique matching rings made by a designer in a local jewellery shop.
An insider said: "[He] thought it would be nice for them to have [it] as a souvenir. They are the loveliest couple and are so down to earth that they did not mind getting photos or talking to us."
The source added: "Coco was great too. She loved the city also and was spending quality time with Johnny's two sisters. They were all so happy."
The famous couple then visited a nearby gift shop, where Coco, whose father is the former 'Friends' star's ex-husband David Arquette, was presented with another special gift after they posed for more pictures with fans.
An eyewitness told UsMagazine.com: "Coco loved it. She was saying how much she loved emeralds, so shop employees gave her an emerald-and-silver shamrock necklace as a souvenir."
Another fan said: "It was such an exciting time for us because our city is small, homey and compact. We never get big stars like Courteney Cox. It was great!"
A source previously revealed the couple are thinking about getting married in Northern Ireland and flew there to celebrate their engagement with Johnny's family.
