Jennifer Garner, the beloved actress from "13 Going on 30," has often spoken candidly about her most cherished role: being a mom. With her three children, Violet (18), Seraphina (15), and Samuel (12), whom she shares with ex-husband Ben Affleck, Garner's approach to parenting is both heartfelt and pragmatic.
Finding Balance and Purpose
Garner's journey into motherhood transformed her perspective on life.
As she once told Today Parents, "Once I had kids, I began asking myself, 'How do I want to spend my time? How do I want to make what little impact I can on the world?'" This reflective approach guides her decisions, whether she's choosing meaningful movie roles or advocating for children's causes.
Co-Parenting with Love
After her split from Affleck in 2015, Garner emphasized maintaining a positive co-parenting relationship.
Despite their divorce, she always highlights the importance of unity for their children. "No one needs to hate him for me," Garner shared in a 2016 Vanity Fair interview, illustrating their commitment to "go forward with love and friendship."
This commitment was on full display in 2023 when Garner penned a touching Father’s Day tribute to Affleck, praising his devotion to their children. Their united front is further exemplified by joint family celebrations, including those with Affleck's current wife, Jennifer Lopez, and her twins, Max and Emme.
