Various individuals, courts and the media around the world have raised concerns about the manner in which cases of child sexual abuse are handled when they occur in congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses. An independent 2009 study in Norway was critical of how Jehovah's Witnesses dealt with cases of child sexual abuse but stated there is no indication that the rate of sexual abuse among Jehovah's Witnesses is higher than found in general society. The organization officially "abhors" child sexual abuse, and states "the incidence of this crime among Jehovah's Witnesses is rare."

Le traitement en interne de ces cas de pédophilie, sans en référer aux autorités judiciaires, leur vaut de vives critiques, et des condamnations en justice contre des ministres du culte concernés.

The organization officially "abhors" child sexual abuse, and states "the incidence of this crime among Jehovah's Witnesses is rare." (en) La denominación religiosa de los testigos de Jehová ha sido relacionada institucionalmente con casos de abuso sexual infantil. Al menos en dos casos los tribunales de los Estados Unidos de América han condenado a la Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania (Representantes legales de esta institución religiosa), a pagar compensaciones a las víctimas de abuso por considerar que sus políticas en torno al manejo de estos casos fueron inadecuadas o perjudiciales para las víctimas. La Comisión Real sobre la Respuesta Institucional a los Abusos Sexuales australiana revisó las políticas y procedimientos de esta organización en cuanto al abuso sexual infantil en Australia dejando en claro que el interés "no es investigar conjuntos individuales de hechos o eventos particulares" sino las (es) Świadkowie Jehowy swoje zasady reagowania na informacje dotyczące wykorzystywania seksualnego dzieci opierają na Biblii. Kwestie postępowania w przypadku skrzywdzenia dzieci są dostępne do wglądu dla wszystkich zainteresowanych w publikacjach Świadków Jehowy wydanych przez Towarzystwo Strażnica. Według oficjalnego stanowiska Świadków Jehowy: „Seksualne wykorzystywanie dzieci jest postrzegane jako bardzo poważny grzech i odrażające przestępstwo, na które władze świeckie powinny odpowiednio reagować (…) Starsi nie chronią przed władzami żadnego sprawcy wykorzystywania dzieci.” (pl) Várias pessoas, tribunais e a mídia em todo o mundo levantaram preocupações sobre a maneira como os casos de abuso sexual infantil são tratados quando ocorrem em congregações das Testemunhas de Jeová. Um estudo independente de 2009 na Noruega criticou as Testemunhas de Jeová com relação aos casos de abuso sexual infantil, mas afirmou que não há indicação de que a taxa de abuso sexual entre as Testemunhas de Jeová é maior do que a encontrada na sociedade em geral. A organização oficialmente "abomina" o abuso sexual infantil, e afirma que "a incidência deste crime entre as Testemunhas de Jeová é rara". (pt) Jehovas vittnens hantering av sexuella övergrepp på barn har varit föremål för diskussion och utredningar. Det förekommer inom Jehovas vittnens församlingar fall av sexuella övergrepp mot barn, i likhet med andra religiösa och sekulära organisationer. Enligt Sällskapet Vakttornet är "förekomsten av denna brottslighet bland Jehovas vittnen sällsynt". Officiellt fördömer organisationen alla former av sexuella övergrepp och enligt en norsk studie från 2009 var förekomsten av sexuella övergrepp inom Jehovas vittnen inte högre än i övriga samhället. En statlig utredning från Australien från 2015 visade, att Jehovas vittnen dolt tusentals övergrepp mot barn. Enligt den statliga utredaren Angus Stewart "verkar det finnas en sedvänja hos Jehovas vittnen att hålla information om sexuella övergrepp (sv)
