Permission slip for Ms. Frizzle's upcoming field trip
There's no question that Ms. Frizzle's Magic School Bus offers students a wild, whimsical ride, and her hands-on approach to learning often has her class whirling across the universe on daily adventures.
For parents, however, every day is a living nightmare. Most have blindly signed the catch-all permission slip without actually reading it, and have been riddled with crippling anxiety ever since.
Below, we've secured a copy of the permission slip Ms. Frizzle sent home to parents:
GENERAL PERMISSION SLIP
The student named _________ has my permission to attend any field trip Ms. Frizzle presents, despite the fact that I have been given no prior knowledge of the location or activities in which my child will be participating.
By signing this, I agree to have my child transformed into all manner of plant, animal, microbe, etc. My child will be transported, unvaccinated, to various countries and/or planets, where death is not only a risk, it is almost a guarantee.
I will allow my child to travel aboard the School Bus (hereafter labeled "Magic"), which Ms. Frizzle has extensively modified herself, and is, by all accounts, a sentient being.
The Magic School Bus is equipped with:
-Functioning eyeballs
-Complex emotions
-A rich inner life
The Magic School Bus is NOT equipped with:
-Seatbelts
I understand that daily field trip activities may include, but are not limited to:
-Rafting a raging river of lava
-Navigating a human intestine
-Getting baked into a pie
In the event that my child should fall ill, I consent to having the other students board the bus, shrink down to the size of a molecule, and enter my child's body in order to learn about my child's illness, without curing it.
In case of emergency, I can be reached at ________
My child's blood type is _________
And, in the case of my child sustaining injury, I would be willing to donate the following organs to him or her: ____________
Signed ______________
