Well, I checked PID and TIME of my helpers: itag_auth.pl(indicated as myaclhelper.pl above), but they did not change. So I don't think my helpers are destroyed and newly spawned... And also, I think squid dies, whenever one of helpers dies or exits(I'm running squid with -X and -N options and it functions in this way as far as I know.)
Modern Squids automatically recovers if helpers occationally dies.
If the helpers constantly dies Squid will abort as you then have some critical error you need to look into.
