American actress Kate Hudson has called for a law that would make it illegal for the paparazzi to photograph celebrities' children without prior consent in the US.

Kate, who has a young son, Ryder, with her ex-husband The Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson, finds it very irritating when photographers click pictures of her when she is out in public with her son.

"It bothers me, it bothers my parents (Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell). Ryder doesn't know what that is. He's four years old," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

"It's aggressive, it's bizarre and it makes him self-conscious. And kids should always be kids, they should never be self-conscious of what they're doing," she stated.

"That should be illegal," she added.
