Ben Affleck never wanted to be a 'divorced person.'
As his kids continue to grow up, Affleck said that he doesn't want them to"pay for my sins or to be afraid for me."
"[That] is one of the hard parts of being the child of an alcoholic," he said."Do you think, 'What if my dad gets drunk? What if he does something stupid? What if he ends up onvideo Affleck alluded to -- one that he said he watched some of, but mostly avoided because"I know what it looks like to be drunk" -- led the actor to enter rehab for the second time in three years.
"I took the last half of the year off and I just got to be dad. Drive them to school, pick them up. Go to the swim meet, come home. That's where the parenting happens," he said. "It's in the cracks. It's in the moments when you're just taking them back from soccer and they say something profound or they talk about how they're really feeling about something and it's like that's where you get to be the parent. That's the joy of it.
"I'm doing my very, very best... It has to be good enough. I don't really have a choice," he continued. "I have to be the man I want to be at this point. I don't have anymore room for failure of that kind."
