Abstract

Child grooming is the intentional establishment of emotional relationships by adults to render children more vulnerable to negative influences. Predominantly perpetrated by pedophiles (perpetrators of sexual violence against children), it aims to prepare children for sexual encounters or exploitation, such as child trafficking or prostitution. The grooming process entails coaxing victims into promptly sending nude photographs, genital images, or sexually suggestive audio files, often via platforms like WhatsApp or direct messaging (DM), all of which are clandestinely documented without the victim’s awareness. Although these offenses are generally regulated, extant legislation is notably restricted. Present regulations primarily address behaviors construed as byproducts of a child’s adjustment levels, largely focusing on the dissemination of content that contravenes decency standards. Consequently, specific legal frameworks pertaining to child grooming in Indonesia have yet to receive specialized attention and are not rigorously enforced. This research investigates the absence of dedicated legal provisions addressing the regulation of child grooming in Indonesia.
