- Abstract
The increasing use of social media hurts women. Many of them have experienced online gender-based violence (OGBV). This study examines the importance of family communication in assisting OGBV victims. The research approach is qualitative and the type of research is descriptive. Data were collected by observation, in-depth interviews with participants, and literature study. Data analysis using the Miles and Huberman model was carried out in three stages: data codification, data presentation, and concluding. This research was conducted in Jakarta and its surroundings within six months. The results showed that the participants who were victims of OGBV experienced violence in the form of doxing, harassment, and terror. Not all victims communicating their problems with their families. Only victims whose families have consensual communication patterns are willing to complain about their problems and receive moral or material support from their families. With family communication, they feel relieved because the family is very supportive and sympathetic. Those whose family communication pattern includes laisse-faire, who considers personal problems as privacy that must be respected, do not want to complain about their problems with their families. They are the most afraid of their parents find out about their problems.
