Banning cones altogether is too harsh!

Cones are gross. I never get one and ask my kids not to either. Sticky and melt all over the place. We're a cups only family. We also eat like birds and cones are way too filling.

LOL, thanks, Linda

Some of you graduated from bring Mean Girls to Mean and stingy moms! If you are too cheap to carry wet wipes then wet washcloths or hand towels and keep them in plastic grocery bags and give to your children to use as bibs and to wash their face and hands

It's so mean to take the joy out of ice cream cones because you're too effing lazy to wet a towel!

Yes, I know about getting a cup AND a cone on top but not everywhere will do that and it still causes fusses.

You're the parent. You can do whatever you want. You don't need to crowd source this. If little Liam asks you why Henry can have a cone but he can't, you learn how to say "different parents have different rules and our rule today is no cone".

I seriously can't believe y'all are so stupid and spineless that you have to crowdsource this.

Be a parent. Say "you are getting a cup today, not a cone".

Yes, 33 year old new moms, it's THAT easy.

A regular ice cream cone has 30 calories. LOL. Are you taking a GLP-1? Otherwise, a cone should not be filling at all. It is basically air.

My wife figured this out; we keep sets of bowls/spoons in the car.
The kids always want cones and after a couple of minutes they put it in the bowl.

Some of you people have bizarre hang ups. In the house or places where spills matter, sure a cup. Outside what’s wrong with a cone?

PP who only gives their kids frozen fresh fruit, your kids are the ones who go crazy for snacks when they’re at other people’s homes or go hog wild at college.

What happened to everything in moderation? Almond mom issues abound in any food posting.

Agreed. No one in my family wants a cone.

How do you feel about cherry or grape popsicles?

Kids will ALWAYS pick ice cream in a cup

My kids will always choose a cone if given the option.

Then cone, no icecream. Problem solved.

I can’t believe you all still allow ice cream. Too much sugar. We freeze fruit and do that in the summer.

Sorry, that's not an option!

Always an option for us because we aren’t uptight.

OK, cool mom.
