Human traficking is a crime resulted from social disorganization and social crimes, such as industrialization, social change and modernization. Social change causes women and children to choose to leave their homes and find livelihoods far from their regions and even abroad, with minimal skills and education. This phenomenon creates human, especially child trafficking. The approach method used is a normative juridical approach or a legal approach. The legal protection for children has ben arranged in Indonesian laws and regulations, however the implementation is not optimal. The appropriate victim protection models to develop are: a). placing child in the family and social care institutions, or environments that provide security and monitor child's activities. b). granting restitution or compensation for the benefit of the child. c). recovery of child's physical and psychological conditions by psychiatric assistance and government officials supervision, thus needing a practical and sustainable monitoring system. d). formulating regional regulation.
Penalizing children who commit crime is actually intended for their-own sake. This kind of penalty has been created in such a way to suit the children. Therefore, the investigation carried out by the authorities before imposing the penalty should not eliminate the aspect of guidance and protection. The punishment formulations that give deterrent effect to those juvenile criminals should be the best effort through non-formal processes that have an optimal role to develop, such as families, schools, or social monitoring institutions. Namely: a). Informal warning; which involves the police to warn the children that they have done the wrong thing and make them not to do it again. There will not be any criminal minutes for this kind of punishment. b). Redeem mistakes with good deeds/ restitution: the children are asked to redeem their mistakes with good deeds, for example by paying compensation to the victim according to the children's capability. c). Community service: those children are ordered to do serve the community or fulfill certain tasks for several hours.
