Abstract

State recognition of human resources starts from the recognition of children as one of the nation's valuable assets. Recognition of dignity is inherently adhered to children as their social life recognition. Children are the forerunner, potential generation to succeed the ideals of the nation's aims, having a strategic role and special characteristics and traits, that ensure the nation sustainability and development. To maintain and preserve their pride and dignity, special protection, legal protection, especially for children as perpetrators (who commit criminal acts) and children as victims, needs to be protected and acquire proper services and welfare accordingly which is regulated in various positive laws. This writing shows the problem of children sexual violence is mostly executed by the closest person. This will bring great trauma to children, which it will need for special protective effort as recovery treatment and as prevention treatment. Children who are victims of sexual violence generally do not have the developmental maturity both physically and psychologically so that they need special assistance in handling the trauma. The problem of writing focuses on the appropriate efforts for the treatment of children sexual violence, as well as the effectiveness of the implementation of government legal products in tackling sexual violence against children. To answer the problem of this writing, the Socio-Legal method approach is used with the conclusion that promotive action can be done by informing about the risks of sexual violence on children through various media, preventive measures carried out by providing sex education to children and establishing good communication with children, curative actions carried out by means of treatment activities, both physical and psychological, to reduce, control, heal, so that the quality of patients can be maintained as optimal as possible, and, rehabilitative measures carried out by returning former patients into the community so that they can normally act as members of the community. This writing also shown that the handling of children sexual abuse and violence has not optimally implemented by all related stakeholders.
