The best students need a break.The signs and symptoms of fakers can be identified by teachers and school nurses.How can you get sent home to enjoy a day off?If you decide to fake a disease or an embarrassing condition, all you need is a little commitment and consistency, and soon you'll be home watching TV instead of doing busywork in class.
Step 1: You can choose an embarrassing sickness.
Most people would be embarrassed to admit that you should choose something that is common.Your school nurse or office worker will think it unlikely that you would admit to something embarrassing if it weren't necessary, as this will give more credibility to your story.There are some examples of bad gas.
Step 2: Talk to your teacher.
You'll have to convince your teacher that you aren't feeling well, but before you do, make your story believable by going to the bathroom several times.If your teacher asks you a question, tell her that you've been feeling a little funny.
Step 3: Privately approach your teacher.
You are ready to talk to your teacher about getting sent home after a few trips to the bathroom.If you are embarrassed about your condition, try to talk to your teacher one-on-one.Don't come right out and say you have a problem."I've been having to go to the bathroom a lot today and my stomach's hurting."I have to go and it's really bad.I just want to take a break.I'm sorry I have to go to the bathroom.I'm embarrassed, but I keep passing gas.I don't want anyone to laugh at me because it's really bad.
Step 4: Don't let your story get in the way of it.
Before you are sent home, you will have to jump through one more hoop.School nurses and office workers are the last obstacles before you are sent home.If you don't change your story and keep being embarrassed about your condition, you will most likely be sent home.Stress the fact that your stomach is upset and that you want to take a break.When no one is looking, you may want to get a false scent that mimics bad gas.These sprays can be purchased at novelty stores, magic shops, and online.
Step 5: You can master your symptoms.
It's important to have a convincing sign that you're ill in order to fake a high temperature.You are faking if you claim too many symptoms, like a headaches, dizziness, and nausea.It's better to have one symptom and one feeling associated with it.You could say: "I have a headaches and every time I stand up, I feel a little dizzy."This is the first time it has happened to me.Is it normal?I don't feel well.My stomach's upset.I had to go to the bathroom this morning because it was hurting so bad.Can I rest for a while?
Step 6: You can get access to a school thermometer.
Once you have gained access to the nurse's office at your school, you are able to reach the school thermometer.The key to getting sent home is the thermometer.Stay with your symptoms.You should tell the adult watching you that you feel warm and ask for a temperature cuff.
Step 7: You can find a heat source or raise your temperature.
This will require some planning or stealth.The adult in charge of taking your temperature doesn't even suspect that you're raising it.If he does, you have no chance of being sent home.You have to be careful not to raise the temperature too high.Between 100F (37.78C) and 99.5% is the ideal fake-sick temperature.Light exercise on your way to the office/nurse's room can be used to fake out the thermometer.This can raise your body temperature.Before going to the nurse's room, drink hot water.It's a good idea to hold the thermometer close to a heat source.
Step 8: You should repeat your symptom and feeling.
It is important to repeat a thing in order to make it believable.If you tell the nurse or school office worker the same thing over and over again, you could be sent home.
Step 9: Relax in the final stretch.
It's easy to lose perspective when you hear "We're calling your parents"You may never be able to use this trick again if you tip your hand and reveal that you are not really sick.
Step 10: Understand the policies of the school.
When it comes to infectious illnesses, a student will be sent home if he is infectious rather than infecting other students.Pink eye is easy to fake and ideal for these purposes.
Step 11: Your pink eye is faking something.
When you take a bathroom break or in between classes, these should be kept in your locker.You will need red lipstick or hair gel to fake pink eye.
Step 12: You should apply your fake pink eye product.
If you are using red lipstick, you only need a small amount; too much will be spotted as a fake, so you may want to apply your pink eye product in the bathroom.The lipstick should be rubbed along the top of the eye.Take a small amount of hair gel and rub it on your eye.
Step 13: Have a patsy.
If you claim that you have pink eye out of the blue, your teacher or school nurse might doubt you.You can blame your condition on a cousin you visited over the weekend or a younger sibling who is still in pre-school.
Step 14: Ipecac syrup can be purchased at your local pharmacy.
The vomit inducing agent is sold over the counter at most local pharmacies.Ipecac syrup is made from a plant that has chemicals in it that cause your brain to believe you need to throw up.You can convince your teacher to send you home from school.You will most likely be sent home by the teacher if you are sick.
Step 15: Look at label directions.
Depending on the brand of ipecac syrup you buy and the way in which it is administered there may be special instructions that you need to keep in mind.Taking too much ipecac syrup can have serious health effects.
Step 16: Take a full glass of water.
If you want the ipecac syrup to make you vomit, you should take at least two full glasses of water.It is possible to keep some ipecac syrup in your locker.You can excuse yourself from class for a drink of water or a notebook if you use this method.
Step 17: Milk and soft drinks are not recommended.
Milk and even milk based products may reduce the effects of ipecac syrup.Carbonated beverages can cause your stomach to swell, which can make you uncomfortable.
Step 18: If vomiting doesn't happen in 20 to 30 minutes, take a second dose.
ipecac syrup should cause you to vomit in less than an hour.You can take a second dose if it doesn't work out.You should not take more than the recommended amount of ipecac syrup.
Step 19: For the best effect, plan your spew location.
If you want to guarantee being sent home, you should vomit in class and in front of your teacher.Since ipecac syrup can be used quickly, be sure to have easy access to a garbage can.
