The results of this study indicate that fulfilling the livelihood rights of children of divorce victims in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia is not very effective. Research data shows that 45% of children who are the victims of divorce are not given a living right at all, and the remaining 55% are given a living but not by the nominal needs of the children, 24% of children are given a living of 100,000-300,000 thousand per month and 31% of children who are the victims of divorce are given a living of 350,000 -500,000 thousand rupiahs. Factors inhibiting the fulfillment of children's livelihood and education rights are 42% due to negligence, 26% due to marriage, 21% family conflict, and 11% due to economic factors. An alternative solution to overcoming the problem of fulfilling children's livelihood rights is socialization law, tabayyun and deliberation, religious approach, and legal approach.
