JAMBI - Ten children who were victims of harassment by young women from Jambi YS are currently at the Center for Social Rehabilitation for Sentra Alyatama Children and undergoing school online or online. These poor children are still reluctant to meet face to face with many people. "This is based on the advice of the Jambi Women and Children Protection Technical Implementation Unit (UPTD PPA) to stay children at the Alyatama Center. So they go to online school," said Head of RT 28, Rawasari Village, Alam Barajo District, Jambi City, Helmi, Antara, Wednesday, February 8. Meanwhile, seven other children who were also victims chose to return to their respective homes. According to Helmi, the seven victims who returned home had carried out their normal activities. Likewise with school activities, they take lessons at schools directly. Regarding the condition of children, parents are worried about the negative impacts that will arise in the future. However, if the victim has been handled and monitored by a child companion at the Alyatama Center, it is hoped that it can minimize the occurrence of negative impacts in the future. Meanwhile, the Head of the Jambi PPA UPTD, Asi Noprini, confirmed that ten children who entered the Jambi Social Rehabilitation Center needed special protection or the Jambi Alyatama Center. These ten children take part in online school learning accompanied by assistants from the Alyatama Center. Meanwhile, if there is a school assignment, the assistants will pick up or deliver the children's duties to their schools. "The activities of the children today are according to their age, namely playing on sports fields, studying, learning according to schedule so that they forget what happened to them," he said. He explained that until now almost all of the victims were still traumatized considering the incident. Meanwhile, the seven victims who returned to their respective homes are still being monitored by the Jambi PPA UPTD and under the care of their parents. "These seven victims have carried out school activities as usual because they have little impact and can strengthen themselves," he said.
