As a young, working parent in Manila, what have been the toughest challenges you've faced?

I'm not from Manila but having lived in other cities around the world (Singapore, Stockholm, London), I'd say just having enough time to juggle family, work and personal growth can be such a huge challenge. Despite constantly being surrounded by people, you can still be lonely, which is never a great feeling for a young mother or father. Also, as standards of living around the world goes higher, it does worry me every now and then if I will have enough for my family and myself in the long run.
