JENNIFER GARNER PICKS UP THE SLACK

It’s a case of Groundhog’s Day for Jennifer Garner.

For the umpteenth time, the 36-year-old working mom was seen picking up her daughter Violet from preschool in Santa Monica, CA today (April 15).

With hubby Ben Affleck in Boston working on his latest film, Jen brought along their newest bundle of joy for the ride.

But it isn’t all domestic duties for Jen. It was announced today that she will be joining Save the Children’s U.S. Programs as an Artist Ambassador. The U.S. division of Save the Children operates early education, literacy, nutritional and disaster relief programs that give a vital boost to children in struggling families.

As an Artist Ambassador for Save the Children’s U.S. Programs, she will focus on advocating for the expansion of the organization’s early education program.

Says the mother-of-two: “Three-year olds don’t even have bootstraps to pull on. Our leaders in Washington and in the states must commit every resource to put all children on an equal path to success. Working with Save the Children, I hope to help young mothers give the same educational boost to her son that I try to give my own toddler and newborn.”

    When will Jen grow up, dump Ben and get on with her life? Does she enjoy chasing around his kids like a nanny? Does she even work anymore? What a pathetic woman.

    ^Wow, why is taking care of her kids making her pathetic? This is what most “real” Moms do everyday. I for one think it is refreshing to see a woman in Hollywood be there for her kids in a real tangible way every single day. If Ben got anything out of this marriage he got a great Mom for his kids.

    Wow! As if mothering isn’t REAL work. And pathetic? It’s honorable to see at least one Hollywood mom as present and invested in her kids as Jennifer.

    Umpteenth time?

    She’s taking care of her kids, that’s what parents do! They pick up their kids at school. Good grief.

    If it’s so boring then stop covering it!!

    She is great, and taking care of her children doesnt make her pathetic. She is great in every way, lovely, sweet and so down to earth. And one of the most underestimated actresses out there…Just great

    Anna, the only one here that is pathetic is you. What is it you would do if you had children? Lock them in a room and throw food at them twice a day? Jennifer Garner is AMAZING and her kids are lucky to have such a loving and caring mother. I suggest you peel your a** off your computer chair and join us out here in the real world.
