Features: Early in the morning, Liu Xuan came knocking on his father's door, saying his electric razor was missing and wanted to borrow his father's for the dance later that night; From dinner onwards, Liu Yong kept making phone calls, calling once, then twice, then three times, until his father roared, "If you want to make phone calls, go outside and do it!" With a bang, he rushed out. Liu Yong watched his son's actions, noted them in his heart, and wrote them down. He used a democratic and logical approach to gently guide: one should value oneself from a young age, and before others affirm you, you must first affirm yourself! In this book, "You Decide" was selected for the junior high school Chinese language textbook in Taiwan. Even Liu Xuan, who was often "scolded" by Liu Yong in the book, became an idol for young people, and some even traveled from Taipei to Liu Xuan's "chaotic room" in New York. Liu Yong is a renowned educator, writer, and painter, and a representative of successfully persuading parents. These books not only led his son to enter famous American schools step by step—Stuyvesant High School, Juilliard School—and eventually Harvard, but also introduced a unique educational method in the book. His words are warm, calm, and insightful, leaving readers deeply moved. Many parents use these books as a reference, saying, "Go look up Liu Yong's books and see if he talks about how to do it."
