Is it hard on family life?

by Nick
(Canada)

I've wanted to be a trucker since about grade 3. I keep going trucking schools and checking them out but that's as far as I get.

The main reasons is the cost and my family. I figure if it's something I don't like then it's one expensive mistake. I heard it can be tough on family too. If you have the time, I wouldn't mind some detailed answers about how the trucking life is for you.

by: Hervy

Nick you are right, trucking definitely affects the family. The degree to which trucking affects the family depends on the factors specific to each family.

for instance is there is a huge trust problem, the family would be severely negatively affected.

If there is no trust issues then something else would be the main problem.
