The social classes,somewhat like today, used ways of helping people in a lower social class as interactions. For example, Chapter 10.4 states “ Clients provided the paterfamilias with loyalty and assistance in his public and private affairs. In the period of the later republic, the client could also be called upon to provide military support and in return was represented by the patron politically and legally. Although the relationship was more beneficial to the patricians, it worked both ways and went beyond the individuals to the family and descendants of both: A client would be loyal to the patron’s son if the patron died, and the patron would continue to protect the family of the client after the client’s death.”
