I've never heard of anyone becoming ill on Soarin', nor have I ever been called for a Protein Spill in the area.
Oh my. Luck.

(some people expect to feel sick and therefore their perception of nausea begins sooner).
I guess a Doctor would get scientifically accurate about the subject and pontificate about the psychological nature of motion sickness. While this is accurate information regarding the medical condition, it lacks the understanding of a Childs thought pattern. When you tell a child not to think about getting sick and to erase all thoughts of nausea from their brain, it will only drive them to think more about being sick and they will know you think this ride may make them sick. So while changing your thoughts may work for a teenager or an adult it will have the opposite effect on a child. The ginger snap can have a positive impact if you tell the child the cookie will help keep them from getting sick. Let them eat the cookie for breakfast or on your ride to the park as well as at various snack breaks in the park, but do not associate the time of consumption with the ride itself or you will loose the placebo effect. Unless of course the child initiates the fear of getting sick then you can give them a cookie and let them know it will help, renforcing the magical properties of the cookie.<O</Odoctorcfjh,
You wise and wonderful sage:sohappy:
Aha that is her problem, she perceives that she will be sick long before she even gets on the ride. So I will tell her to think the opposite before she gets on Soarin........
