Summary
IS IT ALL JUST A BAD DREAM?
Skye’s parents have just dropped a bombshell - they’re getting divorced! She's hurt, angry and believes she's the only one who can keep her mom and dad together. That night while dreaming, Skye™ finds she has taken her parents to court in a last-ditch attempt to deny their divorce?!?! With Jack™ representing the defense and Trevor sitting in as a judge, Skye attempts to prove that her parents’ divorce is undesirable, unnecessary and, most importantly, totally unfair to her! What are her friends going to think? How can she live in two houses at the same time? What about holidays?
THERE ARE NO EASY ANSWERS, BUT...

After all, as Skye discovers, her parents aren't divorcing her - they love her!
