I take my son for a ride down the twisty road. He waves his 4 year old head and I get a red ocean of vomit.

No video on that one, but he repeated it once again for me in Hawaii above a volcano in a helicopter with a pilot flying like he was on a combat mission.

He blessed you with, “Dad, I don’t feel goo-BLURGGORCH!”
Always a treat.
My nephew did that to us.
At least it wasn’t in the car as we had enough time to get him outside before he launched a gut missile.
“I cast Magic Missile!”

“I take my son for a ride down the twisty road. He waves his 4 year old head and I get a red ocean of vomit.”

When our sons were in grade school and middle school, they had friend, whose age was between theirs. This friend did a lot of things with them from baseball to day trips on the weekends.

On one of those day trips, we found out that he would get car sick to the where we were concerned about his health.

Flash forward a decade or so, and he became a pilot for the Highway patrol.

I had a discussion with him later on re why he didn’t get motion sickness while piloting his copter. He said that he could see and control his movement. He still got car sick if he rode in the back of a vehicle. His other trick was to hydrate himself before a flight, during the flight and afterwards.

Flash forward to this past May, and a younger female relative was accepted at a private school. The road from her home is about 24 miles of twists and turns. Her Mother is a typical soccer mom re driving and no moss ever gathers under her tires. This younger relative had some severe bouts of car sickness to and from her new school as they went for her many events before school officially started.

We discussed the hydration with her mother and a few other points like: only riding in the front seat, never looking at her Mother or to the side while riding, never reading nor texting, closing her eyes in the really bad curves and going to sleep if she could.

These actions worked, and the only time she has gotten car sick was riding in the back of a smaller car between two other girls.
