The main difficulties of Tess
If Tess lived nowadays, her problem would probably still be
connected with money and responsibility. She would be a young
woman from a poor family who has to take care of others instead of
thinking about her own future. Her parents might rely on her too
much, and she could feel under pressure to help her family
financially.

Environment and family
Tess would most likely live in a small town or a village, far from
big cities. Life there would be quiet but limited in opportunities.
She might work in a low-paid job or study while working part-time
to support her family.
Her family would be large and not very wealthy. Her father might
be unemployed or doing temporary work, and her mother would
worry about how to survive. Tess would feel that she is the most
responsible person in the family, even though she is still very
young.

Opportunities for assistance
If Tess needed help nowadays, she might go to a close friend, a
teacher, or a social worker. She could also try to find help through
education, charities, or online communities. Unlike in the past, she
would have more chances to ask for support, but emotionally she
might still feel lonely and unsure, just like in the original story.
