Violence against children and adolescents is one of the topics that is often raised as a violation of human rights. This problem exists globally and especially in underdeveloped countries, and it creates extensive negative consequences not only for its direct victims, but also for family members and communities. Considering this issue, the aim of the current research is to examine the position of the prohibition of domestic violence against children and adolescents in the light of international documents.

The current research is of a theoretical type and has been carried out with a documentary method. The data has been collected in a library form through bibliography and data collection and finally analyzed.

Domestic violence against children and adolescents is significant from two perspectives: one from the perspective of the right to health and the other from the perspective of prohibiting discrimination and not paying attention to the position of children and adolescents in the family. Committing domestic violence against children and teenagers violates examples of fundamental human rights. Fundamental human rights in the literature of international human rights have a mandatory description. Governments are obliged to fight against this phenomenon and take the necessary measures to prevent it from happening, and if it happens, to follow up and punish the perpetrators through legal means.

The Convention has played an effective role in defending children's rights, but it has shortcomings in areas such as weak structural coordination, executive guarantee, theoretical foundations and definitions, and the non-deterrence of declared punishments. In many aspects, the Law on Protection of Children and Adolescents 2019 provides adequate coverage for the obligations arising from the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
