Sarah has two children with her husband of 12 years, fellow actor Freddie Prinze Jr.
Feeling childhood should be cherished, Sarah wants to keep five-year-old Charlotte and two-year-old Rocky away from the acting world until they are old enough to decide for themselves.
“I think that might be child abuse if I sent my two year old to work,” she said.
'It’s one thing to have a dream and it's another thing to be the child of two actors. I think it puts an extremely different spin on it,' she explained.

'They would have to do it as an adult.'
The 37-year-old mum is taking a break from acting for the time being to focus on her family.
Her last role was on the sitcom The Crazy Ones, where she co-starred with the late Robin Williams. The show was cancelled in May this year after receiving poor viewing figures.
“I'm taking a break right now,” she explained. “It was an emotional experience and an experience that was amazing, but I need a little break after all of that.”
“Right now it’s just being a mum full time.”
