Data collection was carried out by reading 2,000 online news texts using the search keyword "Keterlibatan anak dalam kasus penyalagunaan narkoba di Indonesia" on the Google search engine. The reading of the news text is focused on the title, theme, and content of the news from January 26 to February 2, 2022. From this reading, two dominant findings discuss the victimization of child victims of drug abuse as important findings in this study. The analysis in this study is done by reducing, describing, and interpreting the data inductively to conclude. The findings in this study show that the involvement of child in drug abuse cases often positions children as drug users and traffickers. In this context, children as victims of drug abuse also get victimization by their friends, teachers, and school principals in the form of intimidation and discrimination.
