<![CDATA[Children are the future generation, so that a good and bad nation is reflected in the behavior of children at this time. The current reality is that criminal acts against children are very frequent, especially criminal acts that cause children to experience profound psychological disorders and affect the child's development. This study examines how legal protection is provided to children as victims of sexual violence that is rife against children, and to find out what obstacles are faced in providing legal protection to child victims from acts of sexual violence. This study uses a sociological juridical approach, namely primary data collection or data collection through interviewing informants and secondary data collection or through literature study.
