Affleck’s children Violet (18), Fin (15) and Samuel (12) are with him and Jennifer Garner in Los Angeles. Lopez’s 16-year-old twins Max and Emme have mostly stayed with her.

The five children are reportedly trying to help Lopez and Affleck reconcile. A source told Daily Mail“The kids think Jennifer and Ben really love each other, like soul mates, and they don’t want them to get divorced.”

“They want them to work it out, for better or for worse, as their vows say. And they feel the two should continue to talk and counsel each other, even if it’s painful. They believe there could be more peace if they do and say the right thing,” the source added.

The insider shared that the children can’t wait for Affleck and Lopez to reconcile before her 55th birthday on July 24 and hoped “that they could all have a cozy family celebration together in Los Angeles.”

It is said that children “highlight the positive qualities of each parent” which helps them make peace.

The insider noted that while the “Gone Girl” actor is intelligent and funny, he can also be prickly and grumpy.

“He’s a prickly guy, he can be grumpy, that’s definitely true, he’s not a happy-go-lucky guy, even though he’s very intelligent and funny. The kids are trying to get him to loosen up and let things go,” the source added.

Lopez, on the other hand, is being encouraged to work less and relax more. “The twins’ father, Marc Anthony, always said: Jenny needs to relax and enjoy her life more, he told her that for years. Now Max and Emme are doing the same,” the source explained.

The children have another motive: they all enjoy each other’s company and want to stay together as a family.

“The kids are getting along great, especially Emme and Fin, they’re best friends and talk to each other every day,” the insider said. “They’re telling Ben and Jenny, hey, don’t give up, don’t lose this.”
