[quote]I think you expressed it well JK.

I don't really know enough about Childline and I reserve my opinion on Esther..she is probably well intentioned ..but :unsure:

There is a similar woman in Oz-Hetty Johnson who is a real rabble rouser and sees &quot;pedos behind every bush&quot;. She has caused endless anounts of trouble including the whole farce behind the photographer Bill Henson (with works in the Tate)who did some terific pics of 14 year old boys and girls just on the outset of puberty.

Hetty proclaimed them porn and all hell broke loose with the PM caling the pics &quot;revolting&quot; whilst the Opposition leader said he had Henson works on his walls.

However in person Hetty is a wonderfully nice person and ..well intentioned.

I note though she has just lost her government funding.

I prefer to give any money I can to a French doctor who runs an orphange in Thailand for abandoned kids with AIDs..he won't accept any government funding and has devoted nearly 30 years to the cause..the locals think he is a Buddha.[/quote]

Angel	Excellent post BR.
BR	Although everything in life can be mis-used CHILDLINE is there for the kids of parents who just dont care. If any of you have walked around the "feral" estates in London or any other City you will see "parentless" kids. For many of these kids they might ONLY have Childline as a last resort for many issues. Telling the Police about problems in your life leads to worse grief - telling Social Services leads to a life in Foster Care and potentially abuse by the "elite" who prey on foster kids with no voice ( Read Icke and others about this ) Childline is a force for good. I have no doubt about that. There is nothing wrong in listening to a child - even if they are making up a story. Every story needs evidence and should be checked out. Therefore, in the "olde" days before the POLICE accused everyone of being a terrorist and a paedo - people would look at the evidence before judging a situation. Of course institutions work together to "cover up" abuse. Social services and the Police and the Catholic Church have been responsible for this many times to cover their own abuses. Childline has no agenda like these institutions. It is a Charity and so although it is not perfect - how would people suggest it could be improved. It is easy to KNOCK others - but we should provide ideas and solutions on here - this is a very intelligent forum. A very open minded and caring set of posters - able to see all sides. I cant see how it can be improved as a service - it ticks all boxes for me. But perhaps others on here can suggest how it could be improved......
JK2006	I absolutely approve of the concept of Childline and the motives of those who started it but, like many things... "the road to Hell is paved with good intentions".
