Pulling a Ferris Bueller is easier than you think—if you plan ahead.

You Will Need

  • A notebook to record dates and excuses
  • A somewhat gullible parent
  • Acting skills
  • Corn flakes
  • Hot liquids
How To Fake Being Sick: Commit this list to memory ...

Step 1: Commit this list to memory ...

Commit this list to memory: a fever of 100 degrees or more, vomiting, diarrhea, earache, and sore throat. Doctors say these are valid reasons to miss school, so what parent would disagree?

How To Fake Being Sick: Keep a log

Step 2: Keep a log

Keep a log of dates and excuses so you can prevent patterns from developing.

Never brag about missing days over the phone, e-mail or IM. You never know when your communications might be intercepted by an adult.

How To Fake Being Sick: Fake onset of symptoms

Step 3: Fake onset of symptoms

Become skilled at faking the onset of symptoms. Digestive ailments generally occur suddenly, while other maladies begin presenting themselves the night before.

Lay the necessary groundwork—at dinner, mention how scratchy your throat is and don’t eat a thing, especially dessert!

How To Fake Being Sick: Make fake vomit

Step 4: Make fake vomit

If necessary, pull out the big guns. Broken cornflakes mixed with a little water make an excellent stand-in for vomit.

How To Fake Being Sick: Fake your temperature

Step 5: Fake your temperature

If your parents demand further proof, drink hot liquids before taking your temperature to produce a false reading.

How To Fake Being Sick: Enjoy your success

Step 6: Enjoy your success

Congratulations! Your mom ordered you to stay home. When you sneak out, make sure you’re back before anyone notices you’re missing.

An estimated 150,000 young people, usually in their late teens or early twenties, are diagnosed with infectious mononucleosis each year.
