That includes how she’s passing down her learned lessons from her childhood to her15-year-old twinsEmme and Max. (Lopez also recently became a step mom to Ben Affleck’sthree children— Violet, 17, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10 — afterwedding theAiractorin August.)
“Everything about my upbringing informs me as a person and as a mother today — the things I learned about working hard, being a good person and following your dreams. All of those things that I learned when I was little that my mom and dad tried to teach me, I try to pass onto my kids as well,” Lopez says in the campaign.
Though more than a decade in of being a mom, Lopez is still discovering new things, especially with two kids in their teens.
“Well I have teenagers now. You know everybody warns you about this stage in life,” she says with a laugh. “And it’s definitely different from when they were little, but you have to grow with your kids. They wind up teaching you, you evolve as a person ‘cause you have to.”
For Lopez, it’s also all about finding the “balance of being a partner, a friend, a parent. To be able to know when to comfort them, when to be firm with them, when to set boundaries.”
“That’s really kind of the trick of motherhood,” she notes.
