Actress Jennifer Garner admits that she is worried about how her and ex-husband Ben Affleck’s fame is affecting their 3 children.  

The star from ‘Miracles From Heaven’ are doing their best to ensure that her 10-year-old daughter Violet and 7-year-old Seraphina and 4-year-old son Samuel can speak openly about the public interest in their lives but she is unsure about how the youngsters will cope with the attention in the long term. “I do worry and don’t know how the fame might affect them. All I can do is help them be prepared for whatever may come their way,” Garner said. “Ben and I try to have an open dialogue with the kids. We talk a lot to them about what the good things are and are not about having actors for parents.” 

The 43-year-old actress admits that her own career causes problems for her kids as it brings so much uncertainly with it. She is also required to travel a lot. 

Asked about the disadvantages for her kids and she said, “The paparazzi! Kids become friends with you because your parents are famous and people stop you at Disneyland to pose with your parents for pictures. Kids wouldn’t know if they will spend their summer at home or somewhere in Atlanta because their mom would want to do a movie. They also feel that their mom is always busy doing her hair because she has a movie coming out. My son always tells me, ‘I do not like it when your eyebrows are dark. I do not want you to have dark eyebrows.”
