The purpose of Childline
[ ]
A. Childline is a counselling service for children and young people up to their 19th birthday in the United Kingdom provided by the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC). The main aim of the organisation is to help children to cope with any issues which cause distress or concern. Some of the most common issues include child abuse, bullying, mental illness, parental separation or divorce, teenage pregnancy, neglect, and psychological abuse.

B. In 1986, Esther Rantzen, presenter of "That's Life!", a popular consumer TV show, suggested to the BBC that they create "Childwatch", a program about child abuse. It was first screened on 30 October 1986 on BBC1. Rantzen wanted to detect children at risk before their lives were in danger. Viewers were asked if they would take part in the survey in an edition of "That's Life!". A helpline was opened after the program so that any child currently suffering abuse could call for help. Rantzen, together with her BBC producers Sarah Caplin and Ritchie Cogan, therefore suggested they should create a helpline specifically for children in danger or distress, to be open throughout the year, 24/7, and launch it on the program.
