Legal Counseling about Vocational School Students 'Understanding of Bullying in Criminal and Civil Law Perspective in Dr. Indra Adnan Indragiri College Tembilahan Vocational High School

Abstract

The bullying phenomenon has become an universal problem. The impact of bullying behavior is often not realized by either the victim, the perpetrator or the people around him. The reason is because bullying is psychological and emotional in nature, the effects cannot be seen immediately and the process is long and slow. Their lack of understanding of legal consequences, especially criminal law, which will ensnare them is one of the causes. In fact, the Child Protection Law actually also has a civil aspect, namely that it grants the right to child victims of bullying to demand material / immaterial compensation for perpetrators of violence. The Community Service Team of the Faculty of Law of the Islamic University of Indragiri took the initiative to provide legal counseling to vocational students who are categorized as teenagers, especially at Dr. Indra Adnan Indragiri College Tembilahan Vocational High School about vocational students' understanding of bullying from a criminal law perspective. Based on the aforementioned phenomena, this activity aims to make vocational students understand bullying from a criminal law perspective, as well as understand the implications of criminal law from bullying behavior, both as a victim and as a perpetrator. The method of implementing this activity is carried out in several stages, starting from the preparation stage, implementation stage, activity evaluation, to reporting the results. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' knowledge about understanding of bullying and the criminal consequences of bullying behavior. The output of this activity is a scientific publication in a national journal of all material summaries submitted by the presenters as an additional reference on bullying behavior in the perspective of criminal law. In addition, the results of activities are documented in the form of an implementation report and published in scientific journals so that they can provide the widest possible benefit academically and practically.
