For 3 days starting today, my whole class is going to trips for 3 days. We just went to our first trip and on the way back, i threw up. My teacher took me to the office and i told told the vice principal what happened. (The trip's cost was $26) She called my mom and said that i cant com on the next 2 trips because she is worried that i might vomit again and ruin the bus. My mom asked if we can get a refund and if i can just stay home for the 2 trips. The principal said that there are no refunds. Also she said that if i dont cure my motion sickness i cant come. But if i dont go, it will be a waste of $26. Please help!! Alwo, im only 11 years old and i cant go and buy medicine or drugs or anything.

Sorry, only just saw your question after 4 days, but thought you might need it in the future, so decided to answer.
Motion sickness is caused by confusion between what your eye's are telling you & your inner ear which senses balance. Its like when you spin around, then try to walk straight!
1.Look at the horizon; focus on a distant point. Try to get the front seat.
2.Fresh air.
3.Chewing gum helps (really!)
4.Stay calm, all journeys end & the next will be easer as you will get used to it.
5.Both practical & give you calmness, take some barf bags.
6. Take some drinks with you, so if you are ill you do not get dehydrated.
These are a few of the ones I have tried and offered in advice, there are other methods,try Googling.
I know people who have suffered like you who have gone on to become flight navigators in the air force, so just keep trying,
