Answer 1

Valerie...   I tend to be that way too... even at this stage in my life... I have always had a tendancy towards car sickness, but boats and airplanes don't bother me at all...

anyway... I found that concentrating on something, reading, games etc, just made it worse for me.  What helped me is having the window open for air movement and many times as a kid, I just basically slept most of the time on the back seat.  

I am not bothered by car sickness when I sit in the front seat however.... but the back seat will do me in very quickly.

You may want to talk to them about getting an over the counter medication for motion sickness.  That would help you out a lot.  They are safe and pretty inexpensive.  

A word of caution... keep a plastic bag with you.... just in case...  that would make it all the worse having to smell something like that the entire trip.

Good luck...
