Guy Pearce thinks he "blows too hot and cold" to be a father.
The English-born Australian actor - who has been married to wife Kate since 1997 - believes his moods are too inconsistent for him to ever become a parent, although he admits having a child is "one of the most incredible things in the world".
"I'm not consistent enough to be a parent - I blow
too hot and cold. Kate jokes that we'd end up on the news for throwing a child
out of the window," said 44-year-old Pearce, who stars in Ridley Scott's
film Prometheus.
"I completely acknowledge that having kids has got
to be one of the most incredible things in the world, but it's also really hard
work."
The star - who shot to fame as Mike Young in Australian soap Neighbours in the late 1980s - believes admitting your own mistakes is important to having a lasting marriage, and he doesn't think couples who ever take a break during their relationship should get back together.
"The secret to marriage is being prepared to put your ego aside and say you made a mistake and that you are sorry," he said.
"When people have small fights and break up, I think it's because they subconsciously know they don't really want to be together."
