The number of cases of criminal acts of bullying lately has increased, which is even sadder to the point where victims die. Of the several cases that have come to the public's attention is the bullying committed by children in the school environment.

This type of research is normative legal research with library research as the approach.

Meanwhile, the result of bullying for children's mental health is that victims of bullying tend to be alone because they feel the most guilty among others, victims have decreased self-confidence, reduced enthusiasm for life so they prefer to be moody and not anxious. For some people their emotions are getting more and more uncontrollable so that it results in a feeling of revenge in the victim's heart and makes them want to do what they have experienced against other people.
