FEN AFLIC is on a mission to secure their driver’s license before the school year kicks off, and they’re not doing it alone.
Recently spotted taking driving lessons with an instructor in California, FEN is determined to master the art of driving.
Just days after their lesson, FEN was seen behind the wheel, giving a ride to none other than their mother, Jennifer Garner, around Brentwood.
On August 28, FEN, who is just 15 years old, confidently hopped into the driver’s seat of a white Toyota pickup truck.
With Jennifer sitting beside them, the two embarked on an important rite of passage.
Photos from their outing captured FEN’s intense concentration as they navigated the roads, attentively following their mother’s guidance while keeping a steady grip on the wheel and frequently checking the rearview mirror.
Before this exciting driving session, the duo made a stop at the California Department of Motor Vehicles.
It appears that Jennifer is playing an active role in helping FEN obtain their learner’s permit.
In California, teens can start applying for this permit at the age of 15 and a half, but they must first complete a state-approved driver’s education course, which includes 25 hours of classroom instruction.
Once they hit 16, they can apply for a provisional license, albeit with some restrictions.
FEN’s journey towards independence is not just about driving; it’s also a reflection of their identity.
Earlier this year, during a memorial service for William Garner, FEN took the opportunity to publicly introduce themselves for the first time.
Speaking to a crowd both in-person and online, they confidently stated, “Hello, my name is FEN Aflic.” This moment marked a significant step in FEN’s life, showcasing the support they have from their parents as they navigate their adolescence.
Jennifer Garner has always been a pillar of strength for her children, embracing them wholeheartedly, regardless of their individual journeys.
In a candid interview with Allure, she reflected on her maternal instincts, saying, “I could have adopted or fostered, but there was no question that I would be a mother.” Her love for her three children is evident, as she balances her roles as both a mom and an actress.
While FEN is busy with driving lessons, their father, Ben Affleck, is also preoccupied with family matters.
Amid his ongoing divorce from Jennifer Lopez, he is focusing on preparing his eldest daughter, Violet, for her upcoming transition to college.
Sources close to Affleck reveal that he’s been dedicated to ensuring Violet is ready for her new chapter, emphasizing the significance of this milestone for the entire family.
In a recent family outing, the Garner-Affleck clan traveled to New Haven, Connecticut, to help Violet settle into her new environment.
Although J.Lo shares a close bond with Violet, she was notably absent from this particular trip.
During their time in Connecticut, Affleck appeared relaxed and cheerful, even opting to leave his wedding ring behind.
The family enjoyed a delightful outdoor dinner at South Bay restaurant, where laughter and warmth filled the air.
Afterward, they took a leisurely stroll, cherishing the moments together as they adjusted to these new changes in their lives.
As FEN continues their journey toward obtaining a driver’s license, it’s clear that family support plays a crucial role.
With Jennifer by their side, guiding them through this new experience, FEN is not just learning how to drive; they are also embracing their identity and independence.
The road ahead is filled with challenges and triumphs, but with a loving family backing them, FEN AFLIC is well-equipped to navigate whatever comes next.
As they steer toward adulthood, one thing is certain: this family is committed to supporting each other, no matter the bumps along the way.
