I. INTRODUCTION
 Children as a gift from God , one God , with no par for each parent , therefore the responsibility of each parent to provide the best protection and education for each son / daughter for the purpose of children become the next generation of quality for the future of the Nation and the State . Moreover, also the duty of the State to provide a quality educational facilities and maximum protection for the flower grows every child in the State.In commemoration of National Awakening Day date May 20, 2014 , we need to revive the awareness that other State has a responsibility to enlighten all citizens, but also has an obligation to ensure the safety and well-being of its citizens, including in it are the children of a minor .Yusuf Qaradawi in one of his books once said that "the Son is the heart of the old coolant in when there is a renewal of life and after death. " Therefore, the role of children in the child's development is very influential on the future of the child. The Prophet which means : " Enough sin if someone menelantarkan those who become dependent on her maintenance . "Still, can not be denied that due to environmental influences as well as influences from older people who require a child to follow a living in day-to- day life , then a child , both because of his actions as well as beans with pungent odor of another is an adult , able to deal with law , especially criminal law .
 II . DEFINITION OF CHILDREN 
Until now, no suitability of opinion amongst the members of the law as stated in the product range of legislation in Indonesia about the meaning of the Child . There is a wide understanding of the child is firmly based on the various interests melatarbelakangi formation of a legislation .Based on the Big Indonesian Dictionary ( KBBI ) , a child is a second generation , while in the preamble of Law Number 23 Year 2002 concerning the protection of children , it is said that a child is a trust and the gift of God Almighty, that in itself attached to the dignity of a real person .Meaning in the context of a human child can be likened to the human lineage. If in the broader context of child mortality that is given by God to man through their marriage in order to continue further life .Child ( plural : children) is a man or woman who is a minor or no experience puberty . Son is also a second line , where the word " child " refers to the opponents of the elderly , adults are children from their parents , even though they were adults . According to psychologists, this development of a child is a period that spans from infancy to age five or six years , this period is usually called the preschool period , then grow commensurate with years of elementary school . However , this term often refers to a person's mental development , although the biological and chronological age of a person includes adult but when mental development or whether the sequence of age then one can only be associated with the term "child" .In article 1, point 1 of Law Number 3 of 1997 states that , " Children are people in the brat has attained the age of 8 (eight ) years but has not attained the age of 18 ( eighteen ) and have never been married . "Another opinion says as follows , in the sense of child psychology , Augustine says that the child is not the same with adults , children have a tendency to deviate from the law and order due to the limited knowledge and understanding of the reality of life , the children more easily learn by example - examples drawn from arrangements coercive . From the opinion that the child would primarily be a social organism , which requires care, love and a place for development, children also have feelings , thoughts, will own all of it is the totality of psychic and structural properties as well as different in every phase in the development of the child ( ren) . In a phase of development is the basis for the next phase .State as the guarantor of the protection and well-being of children , it should be observed in detail to the needs of every child in the State. Not only is the material needs must be met and tercukupi , but also non- physical needs must also be observed and fulfilled by the State. 
III . PHENOMENON AS A SACRIFICE OR CHILD ACTORS criminal acts 
The need for a sense of security in the neighborhood of a child residing and attending school, should also receive serious attention, not only from the country but the tepenting is from each parent and staff community.Various publications both in print , social media , internet media or other information media , was much take away the fact that there was an action that actually does not reflect the protection of the child's life . Physical violence , sexual violence , exploitation of child workers who are making money , the forms of action that deviated from what it should be given to children. But it is unfortunate that masayarakat or country like close your eyes and ears on the happenings .In the 1990s , Indonesia shocked by sexual behavior deviates from a man claiming named ROBOT GEDEG , admitted during the trial that the victim was sodomized and killed eight street children reach the age between 11-15 years old and had done for two years in Jakarta and two in Central Java ( KROYA and Pekalongan ) . Robot Case Gedek our consciousness is like jerking , that the threat of crime against our children is very close to our own existence .Not too long ago , it was revealed more cases of pedophilia ( sexual assault on children ) that occurred at the Jakarta International School ( JIS ) in South Jakarta. In fact, this case involves more than 1 (one) performer , both as a main performer or performers who helped make ( performer participate ) and terdapaat more than one (1 ) victim , that the children who were aged between five (5 ) to with 7 ( seven ) years. As reported by the news online that said policy has set three school janitor becomes suspect cases of sexual harassment of students Kindergarten Jakarta International School ( JIS ) . Two suspects namely General and Frizkiawan and a woman Afriska . Not to mention the case of a lost Renggo persecuted by sister after class, which ironically , the incident took place at the fat -bodied kelas.Renggo space accidentally nudging SY who was student of class IV . Due nudge , the food brought SY SY unexpected fall and not get dropped by the victim as a result of food . Then there was the result of beatings Renggo sick and died .In fact, the National Commission for Anti - Violence against Women and the Government of DKI Jakarta has launched a website complaints of sexual violence against women . Komnas Head Girl , Yuniyanti Chuzaifah say , the site is to facilitate the reporting of sexual abuse victims . He said that Jakarta is one of the most prone sexual violence . Opinion is making us re-think the pattern of character education and teaching children, so could be a good private berperikelakuan in society.Nevertheless the school institution long considered as the second safest place after the house , to the flower grows alone children, turned out to be a place that should get the attention of parents and the public in the school environment , so the role of the community would be helpful. Indeed , all the incidents of violence both physical and sexual abuse of a child, which occurred over the years, but the tip of the iceberg , which is very difficult to estimate the real number of cases of violence against children. Child's education , the child should be positioned as subjects and not as an object of the educational process itself. Confused understanding of the parents or educators ( teachers ) cause plants to grow a child becomes distracted, and it would be difficult to form a child who has a good personality character .Order to be a child with a rugged, tend to make the child will be a son of grainy berkepribadian , and also the nature of the punishment hurt his physical body , tend to be more rebellious child , compared to a compliant child .The question is , how the role of the State in the interest of the child , especially in arranging care for the growing process kembangnya ? The highest state institution should be able to guarantee peace, security and well-being of children , because children are a reflection of the future of a country .
