Julia Roberts is calling on tabloid magazines to stop printing pictures of celebrities' children.

The Oscar winner wants to protect the privacy of her three kids - two-year-old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, and six-month-old Henry - from the paparazzi when she's out in public.

And she doesn't like seeing her peers' children in the magazines either.

Roberts says, "I just feel like it's so demeaning the way they behave, and I hate the fact that I even put any of my energy into thinking about it or being stressed about it.

"And really, more than anything, it just has to do with my kids. There's no reason to take pictures of celebrities' children other than for people to say,

'Oh, they're cute.' I think magazines shouldn't run pictures of people's kids.

I have a problem with that.

"I also have a problem with the whole notion that, if I have Henry in a sling, I'm hiding him. He's a baby and I'm carrying him around, and so's the lady across the street. I get p**sed off, because I think that it's inhuman to chase a woman with her children."

And Roberts finds it hard to understand why people are obsessed with the lifestyles of the rich and famous.

She adds," We're all the same. Why can't we get on board with this? That we're all the same? Some have cooler jobs.

"My stomach still drops when I turn and see someone with a camera."
