The rule with marriage is the less you talk about it the better, as far as I can tell. – Jennifer Garner
My mom was really vigorous about making sure that we saw things and that we questioned things. Education was so important to both of my parents. – Jennifer Garner
My parents started with very little and were the only ones in their families to graduate from college. As parents, they focused on education, but did not stop at academics – they made sure that we knew music, saw art and theatre and traveled – even though it meant budgeting like crazy. – Jennifer Garner
