Jennifer Garner Reveals Why She Won't Let Daughter Violet, 13, Join Instagram

Jennifer Garner is speaking out about why she doesn’t want her daughter Violet, 13, to join Instagram.

“Without even having parents who are well-known, I worry about all kids having to deal with this new pressure,” Jennifer said while making an appearance on the Next Question with Katie Couric podcast. “My daughter’s at an all-girl school and it’s such a huge problem.”

“She’ll occasionally talk to me about getting Instagram and I can see why,” Jennifer continued. “Because I’m on there and it’s something kind of fun that I do, and I am modeling the opposite of what I want for her to do. How often is that in parenting?”

Jennifer added, “I just say, when you can show me studies that say that teenage girls are happier using Instagram than not, then we can have the conversation. But everything you look at, I don’t see anything positive for you out there. You can look at mine when you want to, we can go over it together, but I just don’t see it.”

Jennifer Garner recently explained why she likes her three kids with Ben Affleck to be kept out of the public eye.
