Will Ben Affleck Allow His Kids To Join The Entertainment Industry?
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have made names in the industry and are wondering if the former couple will be okay for their children to follow their profession. The “Justice League” star has recenly finally spoken up to address this.
“I think it’s a hard thing. I love being an actor, I got into it as a child and I wouldn’t change that. But I also wouldn’t want to take my kids and push them out there before they were 18,” Affleck told People. “If they are 18 and they want to make those choices and do that kind of thing, that’s fine. But being a child actor, I just know too much of the downside of what that can be like.”
“The Batman” star admitted that he has gained great rewards that he wouldn’t have been able to make if he did not work as hard when he was a kid. For Affleck, if his children, Violet, 11, Seraphina, 8, and Samuel, 5, are performing well in school plays, then they are in good shape.

The “Argo” star added that the business requires a thickness of skin because it is full of success and failures. As an actor, one has to perform and put himself to be evaluated and it doesn’t go one way all the time.
Earlier this month, Garner and Affleck have finally filed for divorce. Both requested for joint legal and physical custody for their three children. The exes are still negotiating a financial statement, but their divorce might be finalized in six months, TMZ reported.
In other news, on Sunday, Garner, 45, was spotted in Malibu with her children, Daily Mail reported. The “Alias” star looked slim and toned in her workout gear. She wore black leggings with a matching vest top. She accessorized her getup with a hessian trilby and designer shades.
Sources claim that Garner is ready to start dating. Affleck is already meeting new people but is not dating seriously. The two are determined to co-parent their kids.
