Jennifer revealed that, despite the challenges of the pandemic, her family is incredibly fortunate because they’re not lacking in resources. In her own words, "I’ve been in the luckiest possible circumstance. I have a roof, I have food, I have health, and so does my family." She shared these thoughts during an engaging Instagram Live yoga session with instructor Chelsea Jackson Roberts, adding, "So I have no complaints."
Thinking About Her Kids' Experience
Jennifer, who shares her children with her ex-husband Ben Affleck, has been deeply reflecting on what her kids are going through during this unprecedented time. She admits that she’s "really" been pondering their "experience" throughout the entire pandemic. After much thought, she realized that her family is also "lucky" because they have access to the internet and "excellent teachers who can teach over Zoom." It’s these small blessings that make all the difference in such uncertain times.
A Year Full of Transitions

Gratitude Amidst Challenges
Though Jennifer acknowledges her family’s good fortune, she also believes in embracing the full spectrum of emotions. "I think it’s easy to focus on how lucky you are, and that is true. And I do and I am," she said. However, she emphasized that it's important to allow other feelings to coexist. "You have to also let the other stuff be there at the same time, it has to coexist." This balance is key to navigating life’s ups and downs.
Even though Jennifer doesn't know exactly what her kids’ experience will be like until it’s all said and done, she’s been proactive in keeping them engaged. She takes them on outdoor walks to ensure they stay active and connected with nature. "They’ve closed all the hiking trails in L.A., so to get some fresh air, she’ll take them for walks on the beach and in the park … or they’ll play soccer or skateboard in the yard," a source told Closer Weekly. Jennifer is determined to keep her children from being glued to their iPads or playing computer games all day.
Thanks to Jennifer's efforts, her kids have stayed active during the pandemic. When they're at home, they enjoy helping her bake cakes, decorating them with delicious frosting. Sure, the kitchen ends up a "complete mess" afterward, but Jennifer cherishes the quality time spent with her children. It’s these little moments that make life richer and more meaningful.
