Johan Galtung (Windhu, 1992: 62) in Power and Violence, the word violence is translated into English, namely Violence which comes from the Latin words Vis (power, strength) and latus which comes from ferre, to bring which then means to bring strength. In the general Indonesian dictionary written by Poerwadarminta, violence is defined as a "hard nature" or thing; power: coercion. While "coercion" means pressure, a hard urge. These words are synonymous with the word “rape” which means to subdue by force, to overthrow, to force by force and to violate by force. Violence means bringing force, coercion and pressure. According to Galtung (Windhu: 1992: 64), violence will occur when humans are influenced in such a way that their actual physical and mental realization is below their potential realization. This means that there is a situation that causes the individual's ability and potential to not appear.

According to WHO, violence against children is an act of abuse or mistreatment of children i.e physical, emotional, sexual harm, neglect of care and exploitation for commercial purposes which may or may not endanger the health, survival, dignity or development of children. physical, sexual, emotional abuse or neglect of children. Violence against children can lead to physical and psychological problems in the child in the future. Physically, it can be seen from all over his body there are signs of violence. Psychologically, children who are victims of violence can experience psychological problems such as: post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and psychosis.

From the results of the analysis of these four (4) samples of news of violence, it was found that violence was perpetrated by people closest to the victim, a child should feel comfortable with parents, uncles, mothers and other closest people, but instead they are the ones who commit the crime. the violence. Second, violence is perpetrated at home and at school, where children should feel very comfortable, becoming uncomfortable, unsafe and terrible places. Third, violence is committed against children or minors. Fourth, the violence experienced by these children occurred in families with social problems or families with low economic levels. Fifth, acts of violence are committed against children who have cognitive and mental limitations, and children under five years old. The motive for sexual violence was done because of exposure to pornography and other motives for violence due to high emotions from parents (stress), most likely due to economic pressure.

Violence that occurs in children has a multiplier impact, because apart from the current impact, this event will be imprinted on the memory, and will affect his future life when he grows up. Emotional wounds will be felt by children who get abused, and not only that, mental health will also be disrupted, there will be trauma and decreased brain performance and so on. Childhood is a period of growth that should not be filled with something that causes trauma and negative impacts in the future. Let children grow up safe, non-violent.

The Ministry of Social Affairs in the follow-up to its case response provides education to parents, provides protection, a sense of security and assistance for children who are victims of violence, as well as therapy by social workers and psychologists at the Center of the Ministry of Social Affairs. The Ministry of Social Affairs will even refer the victim of sexual violence to the child for temporary treatment, monitoring his physical and mental development at the local government's PSAA (Children's Orphanage) in the coverage area of ​​the center. The Ministry of Social Affairs has synergized with relevant stakeholders in handling cases of violence against children.The Ministry of Social Affairs seeks to respond quickly to the handling of this problem.

The task of fighting violence against children is a pentahelix task, carried out by all elements of the government, society, academia, business entities, society or the community and the business world. Handling efforts in addition to being rehabilitative are also preventive (prevention). However, violence is a violation of human rights and cannot be allowed to go unpunished. Public education is very necessary. Parents need to be alert and pay enough attention to their children's behavior, as well as the environment around them. The mass media must also synergize with the community and government, as well as pay attention to the ethics of writing news on violence against children and women, so that they are objective and do not “secondrape” their reporting. With the enactment of the Act on the Crime of Sexual Violence with statutory number Law Number 12 of 2022, hopefully it can become a legal tool to be able to resolve cases of sexual violence fairly and provide a deterrent effect on perpetrators.
