Inside Violet Affleck's argument with Jennifer Garner... and why she used her family in Yale essay without permission


Speaking to the Daily Mail, a source has revealed exactly what Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck think about their daughter Violet 'sharing her beliefs' about climate change in a candid essay for Yale.

The 19-year-old college student, who just completed her freshman year at Yale University, recently raised eyebrows with an academic essay titled, 'A Chronically Ill Earth: COVID Organizing as a Model Climate Response in Los Angeles.'
