'Curse' of the sheep Year-Really?

My mother and aunts believe in superstitions and that people born in the Year of Sheep have bad luck, but I don't care.

My grandma, one of my aunts, and a cousin were also born in the Year of the Sheep, and they are all doing well. I'm also doing great.

My grandma and aunt are better off than most people around them, and my cousin is perhaps the most successful one in the family. She lives in Qinhuangdao, Hebei province, and works in the real estate industry.

I graduated from a top medical school and work at a top hospital. Looking back, it seems I'm just like everyone else who has a good life. I've had some difficulties, but they were far from being devastating

My little daughter is 3-years-old, and I don't care what zodiac sign she is. I heard that some people avoid having babies in the Year of Sheep, which I think is unnecessary.
