Abstract

Existing technological developments can have positive and negative impacts on society, especially for children who are still at a vulnerable age. The large amount of negative content on social media used by children in general can lead children into negative things, so that many children commit crimes that harm themselves and even others. In this normative juridical research, the author focuses on defending children’s constitutional rights when they commit crimes. Because children are the nation’s and development’s future, they are prepared to implement sustainable development and to shape a nation’s future. For this reason, over the course of human history, there have been constant disputes about protecting children. Respecting Pancasila and Undang-Undang Dasar 1945, child protection in Indonesia refers to safeguarding human resources’ potential and fostering the full development of the individual in the direction of a fair and prosperous society on both a material and spiritual level. Therefore, children who are positioned as perpetrators, victims, or witnesses still receive special rights under legal protection, in an attempt to protect the law from children who are against the law.
