Thus, the factors that cause child abuse are largely derived from the behavior of adults such as parents, close family members or other parties who are not willing to consciously protect the child from all the potential that allows violence against children to occur. The criminal policy against perpetrators of violence against children is good enough, but its implementation cannot be maximally implemented because people do not know the rules of law and there is a public perception that violence against children in the family sphere is an internal matter for educational reasons. In addition, evidence of violence against children is often constrained by a lack of evidence. The criminal law policy has provided legal protection for the rights of child victims of violence to ensure the participation of victims from investigation to prosecution and ensure the recovery of victims. But these policies are not fully able to guarantee a bleak future for victims who experience permanent suffering
