The main purpose of Diversion is to free children from the trauma of judiciary but still found obstacles in the implementation, either regulatory, institutional and infrastructure. The results of the research on the application of diversion at the police level still experienced many failures thus children end up having to deal with the Criminal Justice System and become prisoners that can damage the future of children
