The Sopranos - Tony talks to Melfi about AJ's panic attacks

That's such a loaded final line. It suggests both that he's too lazy to do the hard work of parenting and actually guide AJ, while also admitting that he contributes a sociopathic, poisonous element in his son's life.

I don't think it's that he's too lazy. He genuinely doesn't know how to help him. Mainly because he can't help himself.

[@bradhorowitz2765]

That’s one way. Sopranos always makes you think one way versus another. I think you’re right that To y is Genuinely expressing help when he cannot save himself. BUT the fact that Tony does indeed hate himself and that he NEVER really gets to understand or show deeper care for AJ one on one with the boy, I do agree that the final line shows him admitted sorta that he is the problem and that he IS TOO lazy to actually put in a parents work. Really think about. Tony always takes the easy way out. And even in the early years, we see tony constantly mock or berate his children’s thoughts or decisions, he willingly puts his mafia fmaily in front of them every time, and he enables Aj to not be a good student-teaching AJ to be selfish and materialistic. Did we ever see a scene where tony talks to AJ intimately, without some sort of insult or bribe (aka food)? The only child I think he does is with meadow.

James’ delivery of that first line was masterful. It broke my heart

Tony always avoiding the problem rolling around in his shit. Melfi got real hopeful too. Amazing scene and show.

I remember this scene. Such good days.

Tony loved his children

[@ghostfacedude93]

Tony tried to look after Jackie Jr, but he was killed. Tony is terrified of the same thing happening to his son. "How are we going to save this kid." Suggests that Tony doesn't know how to save his son from ending up like Jackie Jr, or worse yet like Tony himself.

Mr X yea both candidates are pathetic . Frauds and corrupt criminals. Each side is fooling a percentage of foolish people who cheer for politics like its football.

[@nocturnalrecluse1216]
