*spoiler alert*

A. J. Soprano is the only son of his father, Tony Soprano, on the HBO cable television show, The Sopranos. His reputation is staged as bumbling and naive allround the course of the show, but that incapacity and unawareness of his father’s crimes is an essential percentage of his development. Unlike his sister, Meadow, A.J. doesn’t do very well at school. In addition, his father wants to keep him out of the gang world, because he does not believe that he is cut out for it (and perhaps because he is worried that he will be killed).

A. J. is disturb that his father doesn’t think that he is capable, and he lives up to his father’s low expected values by engaging in respective forms of rebellious conduct through the original four seasons. This in turn gives rise to more of a dilemma for Tony Soprano. If his son cannot get into college, he believes, his son will end up in the mob and likely end up dead. A.J. on the other hand, plainly descends into indifference when it comes to everything.

An important reputation in A. J.’s life if Jackie Jr., the son of the former boss and boyfriend of his sister Meadow. Like A. J., Jackie was held out of the mob by his father and went on to college. However, he ultimately dropped out and in a desperate try to get himself into the mob, got killed. Jackie Jr. foreshadows what might occur to A.J., if he is held out of the criminal life by his father and tries to strength his way in.

Ultimately, A. J. tries exceedingly hard to grow up, very quickly. He gets engaged to a woman named Blanca, who already has a child. He gets a job. He also does something as desperate as Jackie Jr. when he tries to kill Uncle Junior, but he is stopped before it he may do so. Eventually, all the stress of attempting to grow up quickly, coupled with a lack of aroused development and a breakup with Blanca, leads him to undertake to commit suicide.

Afterward, A. J. slows down, and tries to get enjoyment from being young again. He gets a occupation working with an associate of his father, and finds a new girlfriend. It seems that A. J. may stay clear from the kinds of traps that killed Jackie.
