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

I think the toughest challenges are universal for parents (learning to breastfeeding, coping with sleep deprivation and sleep-training your child, etc, figuring out this whole parenting thing), but specifically for Manila, I would say that the short maternity leave is a challenge. Glad that it's about to become 100 days, but when I gave birth, both the time (2 months) and compensation were definitely not enough for me to feel like I was fully ready to go back to the workplace.
