The door handle from the outside is broken and the child lock is on. so the door cannot open. how do we unlock the child lock with a closed door

You have very few options with this one. Child lock switches are designed to be hard to get to so they can't be turned off by accident.
Your best option is to take the vehicle to a good mechanic or a good bodywork specialist and have them do it.
What do you mean by the door handle is 'Broken'? Is it loose and one one piece or is it physically broken off?
To fix this yourself your going to have to 'break' something to get to the problem. If the outside handle is broken off, you could try using a piece of wire to hook the release mechanism through the hole left by the handle. If it isn't, you could also try removing the door card inside the vehicle to access the release from inside the door. That's where you might need to damage the panel to get it off!

Passenger door is locked shut and will not open

if its the front door and not working from inside or outside then prob a faulty lock actuator, these a sealed and will need a new one. if only not working from the inside remove the inner handle and check if the handle or cable is broken. if its the rear door, could be the child lock is on, the switch can be seen with the door closed and can be pushed with a screwdriver from the inside. the rear doors can break the inner handle, the outer handle and the cable for the actuator. need to remove the trim and inspect all these.

2002 hyundai accent door handle broke and child lock is on

We, meaning my husband and me as helper) rather than breaking the interior panel, which a replacement is difficult to find, removed the broken outside door handle, and maneuvered the rod manually, simulating the movements of the door handle. The door opened and we clicked the child lock off and then replaced the exterior handle.

the inside door handle is probably broken. the cable may have popped out but usually its because the clips on the inside door handle break off. luckily you can just replace the handle and not have to get a whole new door panel

try switching off the child lock. but if it doesn't work your guess might be right. usually the door handls are plastics, easily breaks when forced. just try prying of one of the edge of the door panel and try to peep through just to be sure.
