Data shows that many children around the world experience physical, sexual, or emotional violence, with a high prevalence in Indonesia.

Objective: This study aims to identify the causes of violence, including family dynamics, social media, and mental health, as well as its impacts, such as health disorders and decreased academic performance. Review: Various factors causing physical violence among adolescents in Indonesia include family influence, social media, and peers. The impact is very detrimental, both in the short and long term, both in terms of physical and mental health. The findings indicate the need for early intervention and additional education in schools to effectively address adolescent violence. The synergy between various disciplines at the Faculty of Medicine is key to creating evidence-based prevention strategies. To mitigate the negative impact, additional education in schools and early interventions involving various disciplines are greatly needed. The synergy between educational programs, government policies, and social support is key to preventing violence. With the strengthening of legal protection, as well as increased attention from parents and the social environment, it is hoped that a safer environment for teenagers can be created. Summary: Overall, this review emphasizes the importance of holistic interventions involving families, schools, and communities to address violence among adolescents and improve their quality of life.
