ages, ranging from teenagers, children, and toddlers. According to data from the KPAI itself, throughout 2022 there
were 4,683 complaints of sexual violence. Apart from having an impact on victims, cases of sexual violence also have an impact on parents. Support and assistance from parents play a very important role for victims. Therefore, parental skills in regulating emotions related to cases of sexual violence are very important. According to Gross and John (in Paula & Miftakhul, 2021) emotion regulation is the ability of individuals to regulate their thoughts and behaviour consciously or unconsciously during different emotions, including positive and negative emotions. This study aims to look further at the dynamics of parental emotional regulation in accompanying and directing children who are victims of sexual violence.
