Host interaction Host comments take one of
three forms:
Joining in with the conversation
Reminding users of the rules
Signposting to support
The role of a host is to monitor and support discussions. Hosts respond to private and public messages asking for help, respond to some comments on posts and remind users of rules around politeness/sharing on personal information. These slides will deal with if host comments encourage interaction.

Disclosures on ChildLineFacebook
General disclosures
We frequently get posters sharing that they love
ChildLine and that it has helped them
enormously. Unfortunately we have to hide these
posts as they show vulnerability to the wider
world and put these young people in danger.
Welfare disclosures
We frequently get young people disclosing
welfare and safeguarding concerns on Facebook
private message.

Additionally
• It’s a very public domain
• Can’t control young people’s interactions
with each other and relationships formed
from our page
• Staff resource of hosts responding to
posts
• Cost of moderation from external agency

ChildLineOnline Services: Message Boards, Ask Sam and 1-2-1 Chat
![Page 26: Overcoming the barriers to getting the young person's voice heard](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a774b41a28ab9c298b48ae/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Message Boards
26
Sometimes, it just reminds you that people care. Even if the
advice they give is not so good, or doesn't work for you,
sometimes you need a kind word to help you through the day. And
by replying, even with just a simple "hi, I understand," it shows they care. And I'm
grateful.
Its an amazing way of getting support
and giving advice to others in the same situation as me.
• MB are anonymous
• Pre-moderated
• Great place for young people to receive and give support

Ask Sam
27
Yes, reading Ask Sam is very useful. I don't want to actually
send a message to Sam. But if I want to get an answer or an
outsider's insight to a problem, I can read Ask Sam, without
writing a letter or going on a message board. Thanks Childline
for being such an amazing organisation!
Yes, thank you for great tips! I still have pretty
hard time with my parents, but following
what you’ve said, things are a bit easier now. Big
thanks, Sam
• Young people write in questions to Sam
• Responds publicly to a handful of questions
![Page 28: Overcoming the barriers to getting the young person's voice heard](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a774b41a28ab9c298b48ae/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
1-2-1 Chat
28
The best advice comes from the 1-2-1 chats with ChildLinecounsellors. They always pay
full attention and give sensible advice to help you through the problem no matter how big or
small
On 1 to 1 chat on of the people from ChildLineReally helped me to stop the person who
was bullying me! Thanks Childline! :)
• Young people can have 1-2-1 online chats with a counsellor

Message Boards, Ask Sam and 1-2-1 Chat
• Cost for moderation is high (agency)
• Cost for staff moderation
• Young people feel alone if they don’t receive a
response, or some might feel favoured
• Might get in disagreements with other members
• Ensuring system is up to date and compatible with
all devices
• Ability to respond to 1-2-1 chat is a
lower than by phone
