I kind of wonder if carrying the Gotti name is a blessing or a curse? I imagine in some cases, it's a good thing, but people would judge you just because of the Gotti name. Preconceived notions due to all the media attention John Gotti was famous for and the fact us Americans are fascinated with mobsters.

The boys probably used it to their advantage against other boys in school. I'm sure teachers kept a close eye on them though. They were probably labeled "troublemakers" in kindergarten just because their last name is Gotti.

Then, one her sons is named John after his grandfather. Poor kid. He'll get pulled over for a speeding violation or something and some cop is liable to hassle him just because of his name.
