In Jennifer Aniston's latest film, The Switch, her character decides to have a baby on her own - and that's a decision she thinks is valid for more and more women.

"Women are realizing it more and more knowing that they don't have to settle with a man just to have that child," Aniston told People Magazine.

"Times have changed and that is also what is amazing is that we do have so many options these days, as opposed to our parents' days when you can't have children because you have waited too long," the actress said.

Aniston went on to acknowledge that it takes more than just a parent to raise a healthy child.

"Love is love and family is what is around you and who is in your immediate sphere. That is what I love about this movie. It is saying it is not the traditional sort of stereotype of what we have been taught as a society of what family is."
