The 50-year-old Emmy award-winning actress revealed the future plans of her five-year-old daughter with husband Julius Tennon, reported E! online.
"She says she wants to be an actress. (She says) I gotta live the words, I gotta breath the words, I gotta remember the words,' and I said, 'Yeah and you also gotta go to school and get out of this house and pay your own rent.'
"I just think this is a terrific profession. The work is fantastic, but the lifestyle? Eh. I don't want to choose that for her at a young age," Davis said.
"I hoped, I dreamed but I didn't know. I just felt like the dreaming and the hoping would be enough and I think for the most part it is.
"I think that's what makes you get up in the morning and keeps you working and keeps you excited and in it and passionate and I think it's the passion that carries you through life," she said.
