Legally, narcotics are only used for scientific development and health services, but in reality, they are often abused. Drug use has become a business venture and has had a detrimental impact on the mental, physical, and psychological well-being of the younger generation. Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics has regulated the types of very severe criminal sanctions against perpetrators of narcotics crimes. The method is a basic process regarding the procedure for finding a solution to a problem, while research is a careful examination of signs in order to obtain human knowledge, so the research method can be interpreted as the basic procedure for finding a solution to existing problems in carrying out research related to efforts to overcome the crime of narcotics abuse committed by children at the West Kalimantan Regional Police.
