Vic's Letter to the Editor of the CT Post

In reading the article, Keeping House a Full-Time Job, CT Post, Saturday, May 10, 2014, I could not help thinking of a concern that comes up for me all the time in my work as a divorce lawyer: Women give up their power and financial autonomy to work as a stay-at-home mom, and then when the marriage, god forbid, goes south, they are up the creek without much of a paddle. Oh sure, the family court is there to provide some protection and make sure that assets get divided equitably, but alimony and child support, in the vast majority of cases, do not provide adequate means for a woman to support herself and her family. And why would she want to be dependent on her ex-husband. Or even if the couple stays together, the pernicious persistence of gender discrimination, of women without power is a source of serious concern in our world. Just look at the article ironically juxtaposed on the first page of the subject edition, ie, the Gallatly case. The fact that women are victims is a serious issue in our world. And that is a major reason why women must seek out and nurture their independence, self-esteem, power and autonomy. Listen, I am not a fan of neglected children and I truly think it is critically important for children to have attentive and concerned parents. But that does not necessitate a stay-at-home parent. Two working parents who know how to log on to Infinite Campus or whatever the school's online program is, and who know who their kids' friends are and where their kids are, and who monitor their kids' social media accounts, and who make sure their kids do their homework, whether these parents work or not, will most likely have reasonably successful and safe kids. I urge and support a trend toward women realizing their self-sufficiency, independence, financial power and autonomy. I believe that stable marriages, safe and successful children, and flowers in the garden remain possible without the need for women to stay at home with the kids.

Vick, Beth and Marion of The Dini Band

Well there is a lot going on and there should be, after all this is life. We can sit around and wait for things to happen or we can implement ideas. The idea came to me to get the band on stage at The Fairfield Theatre Company. The idea came to me to start a non-profit and get some money to do some good and at the same time play some music to raise the money to do some good. It is all kind of working out. The Dini Band is writing songs, performing, working out harmonies and playing fun gigs like with Benefit Street at The Outer Space the other night. Dream the dream. Live the dream. Maybe I am just a physical being who eats and walks and gets sick and recuperates, and talks and interacts with the other physical beings, but maybe also, I am a soul, a part of the universe, the spirit world, the energy that unites all of life, a part of the Higgs boson, the essence of humanity and god
