Abstract

The existence of the street to survive causes the child in bad condition. This resulted in the children being in the limitations of economic conditions that could reduce the rights of the child. Child's life on the streets can be pushed toward dehumanization because the learning process of the child always happens on the streets full of risk. This research aims to analyze the social construction that can lead to street children experience dehumanization. This qualitative descriptive study using a case study which is explanatory. For the informant used the maximum variation sampling. Data collection is done using observation, interview, and documentation. Data validation is done using triangulation of data sources. The results showed children from the category of children of the street and a part of street family experience the process of dehumanization because the child in her life feel that there is no longer the right solution to survive apart from the life of the streets. While street children from the category of children on the street are not subjected to dehumanizing because children are still getting more attention from parents and children assume the street, not the place to survive but to seek additional income.
