Abstract

Bullying is a type of aggression, intimidation, and bullying that kids or teenagers commit against their victims. It involves inflicting repeated, long-lasting physical and psychological harm on the victim. Bullying victims endure psychological trauma in addition to physical damage, which alters their behavior and social interactions. Bullying happens in practically every nation on the planet. Normative research methodology employing a legal sociology approach and primary and secondary legal sources is employed in this study. The data is qualitatively evaluated before conclusions are reached. Because (1) there is currently no legislation in Indonesia specifically addressing bullying and (2) law enforcement operates cautiously to avoid endangering minors, bullying law enforcement has not proven effective. In addition, Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System permits extrajudicial settlements and diversion of cases, favoring the protection of offenders over victims; 3) victims of bullying require mental health treatment from a psychologist or psychiatrist; 4) society is less understanding and views bullying as a harmless activity that doesn’t require legal resolution and only poses a threat to particular individuals.
