It's a big year for Jennifer, who has been feeling emotional in the lead-up to her oldest daughter Violet's departure from the family home.

Violet will be going off to Yale in the fall and is the first of Jennifer's children to fly the nest. While she's incredibly proud of her child, Jennifer can't help but feel apprehensive about the big change.

Recently during an appearance on the Today Show , the Alias actress opened up about Violet's big year, and how it was making her feel.

She recently shared footage of herself crying over Violet's high school graduation ceremony, and told hosts Hoda Kotb and Sheinelle Jones: "I was a wreck the whole month leading up to it. Every awards ceremony, every final, everything, I just cried and cried at everything."

However, when it came to the actual day, Jennifer just felt pride. She added: "Then, the day of (graduation) was so happy that there was nothing to be other than just so proud and happy."

While not a lot is known about any of Jennifer's three children, who she shares with ex-husband Ben Affleck, Violet recently stepped into the spotlight to give a powerful speech to the LA County Board of Supervisions.

She had a list of demands to "confront the long COVID crisis," including mask availability, and air filtration. She also demanded Far-UVC light in facilities such as jails and detention centres.

The teenager is often seen wearing a face mask in public and revealed during her speech that she had contracted a "post-viral condition" in 2019.

She said she "saw first-hand that medicine doesn't always have answers to the consequences of even minor viruses."

Violet's parents are incredibly proud of her and Jennifer recently opened up about all three of her children's personalities, revealing that on top of everything else, they have all inherited her humor.

During an appearance on Dr. Aliza Pressman's podcast, Raising Good Humans, the star opened up about her number one hope for all her children, which was to be funny.

"Funny is number one. Please be funny, that's why I had you," she joked. Luckily, it appears she got her wish: "Check, check, check, that's one thing, thank god!" she concluded. The star went on to speak about the importance of having her own life in order to give her children space to grow and be themselves.
