Jumping off the Planet by David Gerrold
A trip to the Moon? Sounds like the perfect family vacation. Only for 13-year-old Charles Chigger Dingillian his family is anything but perfect. His parents fight so much they put the dis into dysfunctional. So when he and his brothers find themselves halfway to the Moon, Chigger hits on a plan: if his parents can't find a way to work things out, why not just divorce them? Sound crazy? Until it works.
Charles and his brothers are on their own. But their bid for freedom hits a roadblock when Chigger suspects they are targets of an interstellar manhunt. What do these Big Corporations want? And why? Their only hope is to jump off the planet.
