Summary
Bonnie Landry is back! I am so excited to share this episode with you. I interview Bonnie Landry about the ideology of "carrot and stick" motivation in parenting and in homeschooling. I think you will find this discussion very interesting.
Bonnie is a Catholic-convert homeschooling wife and mother for the last thirtysomething years. She and her husband have seven children, 13-32, and five little grandchildren. They have been homeschooling their brood on Vancouver Island since 1991.
She loves God and hanging out with her husband and family as well as; gardening, speaking, writing, doing floral design, drinking wine, ballroom dancing, making cocktails!
