"N.Y. parents want to ban ice cream trucks
Some parents in Brooklyns tony Park Slope neighborhood are trying to stop ice cream vendors from hawking their cold treats to kids in Prospect Park, according to the New York Post.
For some parents getting their kids a cone come April is a tradition, but a few members of the Park Slope Parents online group just wish the ice cream trucks would go away. These parents are tired of listening to their children cry, scream and throw tantrums when theyre denied a sugary ice cream.
Two different people came into the actual playground with ice cream/Italian ice push carts. I was able to avoid it for a little while but eventually I left with a crying 4-year-old.
When my kids see other kids get ice cream, they just start begging me. I just dont think these are the fights we should be having.
