Ben Affleck: My family is my compass

04/04/2007 at 12:06 AM ET
Ben Affleck used to be concerned with where his career is going,signing onto movies one after another, but these days he’s focused onbeing a family man to Jennifer Garner and Violet Anne, 16 months.

The nice thing about having a family is that it gives me a truecompass that I never had before. I still make mistakes, but now, atleast, I have more of an idea where the sun rises, and that’s not goingto change. Having a family really takes a lot out of everything elsebecause it’s not as important as it was. It’s not living and dying. Ihope my career is what I want it to be, but that’s not as important tome as being a father.

Aww. That’s sweet. He seems like he’s really changed since the whole Bennifer thing. It’s not about bling and all that anymore for him, which is good – It’s not realistic.

Weak in my knees on

Now, that is a SWEET picture!! What a totally lovely guy. I think I’m in love… If anyone deserves a little happiness, it is Ben!!!

Mom Said It

"I had to make a decision that I could sleep with every night. I did feel responsible for the young girls who I probably confused and let down. I apologize for that. But I wasn't trying to glamorize teen pregnancy."
