How to Fake Sick to Stay Home from School
Do you have a parent who loves you and would do anything to protect you? Are you able to lie through your teeth? Are you prepared to throw your parents' trust in you to the wolves so you can dodge responsibility for a test you didn't study for? If so, read on and learn the tricks of the trade.
[edit]Steps
If you are planning on staying home the next day, tell your mom or dad that you don't feel well the night before, or wake them up at about 1:00 A.M. and tell them you just threw up or something.
Do all your homework that is due for the next day. You never know, it might not work and you don't want to get in trouble!
Pick an ailment from below and follow those instructions
Use one of the following excuses to get out of going to the doctor or to persuade you parent that you are sick:
"I don't think I am that sick, but it would be very hard to concentrate at school."
"It's probably not a serious thing, so I don't think we need to go to the doctor, but I wouldn't do that well in school today. I just can't concentrate."
"I don't want to make the other kids at school sick."
"I don't want to make you take off work to come pick me up."
"I know school is very important, but I really feel that I wouldn't be able to concentrate today. I'm just not 100% sure."
When your parents decide to let you stay home, don't just say, "okay." Protest their decision to let you stay home (but only if you didn't have to convince them first). This reinforces the fact that you really are sick. Say, "But Mom, I'm going to have so much work to make up!" or "But I have a math test today!"
"I have diarrhea." It works every time. It's too humiliating to fake it.
If you're a girl, you can tell your parents you have cramps. Your dad probably won't want to even talk about it, and your mom will understand. Neither of them will be able to disprove it.
Don't make it too obvious and say "I have a fever". Hint at the symptoms to make it less obvious. Say something more like, "I feel cold and tired"
[edit]Dizziness Method:
Make sure that you do this after you get back from a sporting event because it will make it more believable.
When you are getting ready for bed, tell your parents that you keep getting really dizzy when you move a lot or bend down.
Pretend to sleep until you know your parents are asleep.
When you know that they are sleeping for sure, stay up as long as you can. This makes your eyes red and makes them look like you're sick.
When you wake up, start to get ready and tell your parent that you felt okay when you woke up, but that you keep getting really dizzy and while telling them, act like you are about to pass out or fall asleep. (When you are really sick, your body shuts down, making you tired)
Convince them that you are sick and that you need to stay home because you have "gym" or "practice" today and don't want to be sick for it.
After they allow you to stay home, go in your bed and fake sleep.
Fake for about 15 minutes and then turn on your t.v. or ipod.
Stay in your bed to convince your parents that you are really sick. If you are tired, consider actually sleeping.
[edit]Generic Sore Throat method:
Plan ahead. The day before you plan to fake a sore throat, say that you're feeling a bit scratchy in your throat, and clear your throat a lot.
The night before you plan to be sick, bring your phone or a games or ipod under your pillow. Then, at about 7:45pm/8:00pm, say that you feel "sluggish" and tired, and that you have a migraine. If they give you aspirin, put it in your mouth but do NOT swallow it. Hide it underneath your tongue, and then spit it out later. Then, stay in bed and use your phone, ipod or game to make time pass.
Later, at about 10 p.m., "wake up" and drink some water, saying that your headache is still there. Clear your throat repeatedly and sneak a heating pad under your pillow (works better if electric). Then, put it on your head for about 5 minutes. After that, get your parent to check your temperature. Then, say you are dizzy and begin to cry.
Lay down and try to actually sleep.
In the morning wake up around 5 and tell your parent you still don't feel good.
In the morning, do the same heating pad trick and "feel sluggish" once more.
[edit]Sick stomach method:
In the morning, sleep in. Take a while to get out of bed, but make sure you still have time to convince your parents to let you off.
Mush up some bread and add water.
Get some food dye (black is best), and add it in. You can also use vanilla extract, but make sure to cover the smell with vinegar or something else. You can use more than one drop with the vanilla extract, but make sure to only use one drop with food coloring.
Get an egg, beat it, and add it into the mix.
Keep this mixture (vegetable soup can be substituted) in a drink bottle, and when your mom is somewhere near the bathroom (but not in the room), say "I think I feel sick."
Run to the toilet with your drink bottle hidden, and then close the door, locking it if you can.
Tip the mixture from the bottle to the toilet in batches, while making heaving noises just before each batch.
Smear a little on your face so they smell it on you. (Not too much, or they will know you're faking)
Alternately: In the presence of you parents, run into the nearest bathroom (but to make sure they don't follow you, close and lock the door), flush the toilet, spray air freshener in the air, and emerge wiping your mouth. Pour and drink a glass of water "to get the taste out of your mouth" while you explain that you just vomited and covered the smell with air freshener. Or you can mix some balsamic vinegar dressing with oatmeal (some carrots or other veggies make it look even better). The vinegar gives it a realistic smell.
Alternately: Take last night's leftovers, mash them up, and add milk, bread, and lemon juice. Dump this mixture either into the toilet or in a "sick bucket." This mixture is much more believable because your parents can actually see what you ate last night, and it looks like you literally emptied your stomach.
Alternately: If you can't get any one to believe that you're sick, and you don't want to make anything, drink something like vinegar. It will give you an upset stomach that won't last. -[WARNING- it tastes awful :( ]
[edit]Flu method:
Wear many layers of clothing. This makes it look as though you are freezing, since sick people feel cold easily. Make sure you do this the night before you plan to not go to school.
Sneeze loudly, then sniffle in front of your parents.
Whenever you cough, do so loudly and twice. Then, sniffle.
Once in a while, after a sniffle, sneeze.
Rub your forehead and face, if you have parents who check your face for temperature. Don't rub your face too hard; it can give you a rash or just make it hurt.
The next morning, try to wake up about half an hour or an hour before your parents. Then, start doing stuff to make yourself sweat a lot (sick people sweat sometimes when they are cold), and dangle your head over the edge of the bed to get a red face. Then, grab something fun to do in bed while you wait for your parents to wake up. Just make sure it isn't noisy.
When you hear your parents coming to wake you, rub your face quickly and hard. Then, settle down into bed and pretend to be asleep.
If they still want to make you go to school, get up, but sluggishly. Slowly dress, but not too slowly. Skip a button on your shirt, don't comb your hair properly, and don't tie your shoe laces properly (or even at all). Just don't fall and hurt yourself, and make sure there's enough time to convince your parents not to send you to school.
Make your way to one of your parents. Make sure that he or she is alone. Tell him or her something along the lines of: "Hey, Mom/Dad, I don't feel so good..." and moan. Try leaning into his or her arms, as though you're trying to get a hug. He or she will most likely ask you what's wrong. Say "My head is pounding, I'm freezing, and my throat hurts. My nose is blocked, too, and I feel really tired." Moan again, and lean into his or her arms. Hug him or her, and say that you need to use the bathroom. Go to your other parent and do the same, only add one or two more symptoms. Your parents will come and discuss this, and realize that you're much worse than they thought.
If you use an electric thermometer, ask your parents to take your temperature. Make sure they have a warm drink with them that is unfinished. It should be near you. Try to dip the thermometer inside the cup for a couple of seconds, until it goes up to your desired temperature. Then, take it out, blow on it just a little, and pop it into your mouth. Make sure it doesn't touch the area below your tongue; just balance it on your tongue. When it beeps, give it to your parent. He or she will check it (also see tips for other thermometer tricks).
[edit]Migraine method:
Pretend that you have a headache.
Turn off all the lights in your room, and turn off the music. Close your curtains and your door. Get into bed and hide under the covers.
In front of your parents, ask them or your siblings to "please be a little more quiet." Sound pleading, but don't play it up too much, or you might get in trouble for "cheek."
If your parents ask where it hurts and how, say that it hurts in your temples, the back of your head, or all over. Also, say that you have a pounding headache. Remember to whisper or talk softly--just don't not talk at all. They may think you have laryngitis, and you may be rushed to the emergency room. If someone talks or makes a noise at or above normal speaking volume, wince or flinch.
Fake fatigue and sleep a lot in bed.
Don't move around a lot, and try not to move your head.
Ask for some aspirin and some water or juice, and say you will be fine if you have a peaceful day of rest.
Say that you will do your homework when the migraine is gone.
Wake up in the middle of the night and start crying, saying that it's really bad, but don't make it too obvious. Do something along the lines of going into the bathroom and making loud noises with cabinets. If they do wake up, say you are looking for medicine because your head is about to explode.
If your parents have a bathroom near their bedroom, that would be a better place to go in the middle of the night. Say that you're extremely dizzy and that you just came to splash some water on your face. Also, tell them that you couldn't sleep, but that you had to go pee (because of the water/juice you had at night).
[edit]Cough Method:
Note: This only works if your parents are not the over-worrying kind. If you have over-protective parents that go running to the emergency room over a minor strep throat, do not attempt.
Cough a lot the night before, and make sure your parents notice your coughing.
Don't go to bed until it is unavoidable. The less you sleep, the worse your immune system is, and less sleep will make you look pale and sick in the morning.
Go to the bathroom first thing in the morning, and rub your eyes with water a bit, just to give yourself slightly "sick eyes."
Walk with heavy steps, react slowly to everything, and slouch when you sit. Stare with vague, unfocused eyes at everything.
Refuse breakfast, mention that you feel terrible, and say that your throat hurts a lot. A headache to go along with it may be a good idea.
Shiver and say that you're freezing. When one has a fever, one usually feels colder. It might not be a good idea to say "I'm freezing. I think I have a fever." Instead, let them come to the conclusion themselves, but that depends on the parents.
At this point, your parents should take your temperature (see tips for thermometer tricks).
Telling your parents something like "I am too sick for school" will usually get them suspicious. Reverse psychology really works. Don't overdo it, but pretend to try to convince them that you're well enough to go to school.
Overall, the symptoms of a headache, sore throat, coughing, and the "freezing" act are the basic symptoms of the beginning of strep. In the US, many parents, for some reason, drag their children off to the doctor over a case of strep throat. If your parents are like that, don't do this. If your parents don't do this, though, these symptoms, if done convincingly, are all but guaranteed to give you a sick day. If they send you to school, go to the school nurse, and he or she might send you home.
[edit]Vomit Method:
The night before, clutch your stomach and appear to be sick. Tell your family you "don't feel good," and go to bed earlier than usual. Sleep without your covers to appear to feel hot.
If you're brave, smart, and never fake being sick or are never sick, then you could just try making yourself vomit. Eat a bunch of triscuts the night before, and throw up at around 3 in the morning. Wake up your parents and tell them you threw up. Throw up again around 6, and maybe 8 if they're not absolutely convinced. Then at around 8:00 pm act like it was just a 1 day virus, and that you're fine now and can go to school the next day.
The next morning (try getting up earlier than your parents), go to your kitchen and heat up some oatmeal. Eat part of this oatmeal.
Put some orange juice and milk into the cereal. Smash the ingredients together with the cereal to create a vomit-like mixture.
Go to the bathroom and make gagging noises.
Toss a little of the mixture into the sink or toilet. Make sure it looks like vomit. Spitting into the mixture will make it seem more believable. Do not throw glops of it in, because that looks fake.
Put a little bit of the mixture in and around your mouth (don't worry--it surprisingly doesn't taste too bad).
Go to your parents' room and tell them that you "threw up just now" and "feel chilled". They will smell your breath and supposedly know that you have just been sick.
If your parents don't believe you, you can show them the fake vomit. This could get you off for 1-2 days. If it doesn't work, tell them that if they don't let you have a day off, you will be sick at school.
If you have a parent who leaves in the morning, call him or her saying "I don't feel good. I feel like I'm going to throw up." If he or she doesn't believe you, bring the phone to the bathroom and make "throwing up" sounds, and start moaning.
(Here's an alternitive way to make fake vomit)
[edit]Common Cold Method:
Note: Only do this if your parents, dont overeact. They may take you to the doctor and waste some money.If they find out or you don't want to waste their money, DO NOT DO THIS!
Don't clean your ears for a day or two before. If you take a trip to the doctor, he or she will see this as a sign of congestion.
Talk as if your nose is stuffy (practice this by pinching your nose and talking).
Say that you have a headache and that your entire head feels like it's going to explode.
If you are planning ahead, go to bed early, like 7:30. Claim that you are "too tired". Bring and iPod instead of a book, because your parents might see the light from reading the book and figure out you're faking.
Say that your stomach feels like you're going to throw up, but not really. Say that it feels as if there are chunks of food at the back of your throat about to come up.
Say that your throat hurts badly, and talk low.
Whenever you cough, cough twice and then sniffle.
Only breathe through your mouth.
Apply a small amount of toothpaste onto your bottom eyelids to make your eyes watery and look like you haven't had much sleep (leave toothpaste on for about three minutes. Warning: it stings a little).
Try fake crying, and your face will look horribly sick. Your eyes will be red and you will have a runny nose.
[edit]Diarrhea Method:
Tell your parents that you have bad diarrhea. Parents will not usually demand to see their child's excrement to make sure that he or she actually has diarrhea.
Go to "sleep" before your usual bed time. Say if you usually go to bed around 11:00, go to bed at 10:00 and say you feel sick to your stomach and tired.
Make moaning sounds. Then, get up and go to the bathroom, repeating the same sounds over and over until somebody finally asks, "What's wrong?" Then, say "I have diarrhea, and my stomach is killing me." Act as if you're about to cry. Don't overdo it though, as some parents might get you to a docter if it's that bad.
If they offer to give you medicine, say "Okay, if that would help..." When they give you the medicine, pretend you drank it, make a sour face, and head to the bathroom. Do NOT drink it.
Spit out the medicine and wash out the horrible taste with water.
Go to bed and roll around, repeating the same moaning sounds over and over again for the whole night. Keep going to the bathroom every 15-20 Minutes to make it really believeable.
If you dare, even mess your pants to make it more believable. Only do it on pants that you plan to throw away though.
[edit]Urinary Infection Method
I'm not too sure every parent really wants to hear about the activity of your bladder.. Much like the activity of your bowels.. So this one's easy to fake.
Plan ahead - the day before, say to your parents that you really need to pee.
Go to the bathroom, and flush the toilet after about 30 seconds of being in there.
Around 5 minutes after coming out of the bathroom, repeat this.
Do this around 3 or 4 times. Then, go into the bathroom, and rub your eyes a little. This will make them watery and red.
Emerge from the bathroom and tell your parents it hurts to pee. They won't ask many more questions.
Go to bed early and say you're trying to ignore it.
In the morning, tell your parents that it feels okay.
Go to the bathroom, and do your business.
Come out, and say it's back again and that it hurts.
If your parents say you can stay home, say you kinda need to go for your last two periods or so.
Tell them that if you're feeling better by then, you'll go to school.
When they come home and ask if you went to school, say you wanted to.. But then you still had to pee.
Drink alot of water and tell them it helps flush out your bladder.
The next morning, say the water thing worked and you feel better.
Et voila. Magnifique! You successfully got a day off. Well done, hero.
Note: If you have parents who tend to overreact to things, don't try this one. UTIs are really no fun, and are generally cause to get taken to the doctor and put on antibiotics. So unless you have really laid-back parents, this probably isn't the best idea.
[edit]Tips
Plan well: try to do it on a Monday or Tuesday, so you don't miss out on weekend activities.
Only fake sick when you need to.
Know your parents. If your parents are both doctors, for example, they will obviously be a challenge to fool.
Make sure you have snacks in your room so you can miss a meal because you're "not feeling well."
Plan out what symptoms you will have in advance, and how intense they'll be.
You can be more convincing if you actually go to school and then later claim you can't get through the day (ideal if you just want to get out of taking a test, for instance). Beware that school medical staff are harder to fool. However, there's no medical test in the world that can prove you don't have a bad headache or your tummy hurts.
The first few minutes of the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" can be another valuable resource (caution: your parents may well have seen this movie, too).
Read about how parents catch kids who are faking, so you know how to combat their techniques.
If you're faking the flu or something with a fever, when you get up to go to the bathroom, act dizzy and swoon.
If you get out of bed, only get up to go to the bathroom, so you're parents will think that you're so sick you can't even go down the stairs.
Try not to insist too much about going to school, and especially don't mention tests or quizzes.
It always helps to try and insist that you need medicine, to make them think you really are sick (you can always just go into another room and spit it out).
If you have siblings that also go to school with you, make sure that thay are not going to fake sick on the same day as you. it just becomes one big mess.
Don't fake sick after a day off,this just shows that you want an extra day off of school and your parents will definitely send you to school.
If you have siblings, they will always know if you are faking because they do the same thing. Make sure your siblings also think that you are really sick.
If your parents still send you to school, visit the school nurse. Act sick, and after a while they'll ask you how you feel-tell them you still feel sick. They will call home to your parents and you'll go home (voila!!!)
If you are acting tired and sleeply blink your eyes slowly as if is looks like you want to keep them closed.
[edit]Faking physical symptoms
Use make-up to your advantage. A thin dusting of unscented baby powder can give you a more convincingly pale, sickly pallor. A foundation that is a shade or two lighter than your natural complexion can be even more effective.
Wet your eyes and rub the bottom eyelids until it hurts just a little. That will make you look tired and sick, as the redness spreads with a more natural look. Don't overdo it.
Dangle your head upside down over the side of your bed. This makes your face red and increases your facial temperature.
Do push-ups, jumping jacks, or sit-ups and then get under a heavy quilt to make your face flushed, red, and sweaty. This also increases your temperature.
For a good fake throw-up (or at least gagging), mix together 1/2 to 1 tsp. of salt and 4-7 ounces of cold, left-over coffee (or water if you don't have cold coffee). With the coffee, you will more than likely throw up, or get close (this combination is actually more commonly used to make someone vomit if he or she ingests poison and a medical aid like ipecac is not available). If you drink the water combination, you will feel like gagging, but it is less likely that you will throw up.
If your parents are prone to feeling your forehead to check your temperature, rub your hands against your face repeatedly and quickly. This raises your temperature and makes your face look flushed.
Mess up your hair. If you look good, they'll think that you're fine.
You could run your wrists under cold water and damp your hands it will make them feel cold and clammy.
If you want the tired look, apply red eyeliner underneath your eyes.
Use dark gray or black eye shadow and smudge a thin layer where bags would normally be (to get the "I didn
