SOURCE: broken handles on the(rear) outside

Remove the door panel from inside the car. and then look into the door with a torch its uncomfortable but possible. then fiddle with the different levers and cables till it pops open.

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!

How do you fix the cargo doors on a 2005 dodge dakota. they dont open

door handle latch could be loose, but kind a weird happend on booth doors, souds more like child lock protection: Child Protection Door Lock Location
To use the system, open each rear door, use a flat blade
screwdriver (or valet key) and rotate the dial counter-clockwise to engage the lock and clockwise to disengage
the child protection locks. When the system on a door is
engaged, that door can only be opened by using the
outside door handle even if the inside door lock is in the
unlocked position.

Cannot open rear drivers side door from outside or inside. door panel is off, door is closed. child lock is on. tried pulling cable, wont move. tried lifting up the child lock with a thin blade

Sounds like the lock mechanism is stuck on the locked position. Since you didn't specify make and model this is a best guess. Make sure the lock is in the unlock position and try manipulating the rod connected to the outside handle (since child lock is on the inside handle won't work)

1997 Geo Metro rear door won't open!

I have the same car, same problem. I've still not been able to fix it, despite taking the inside panels off the rear doors, checking the rods were seated, applying WD-40 to the lock mechanisms, and manually working the mechanism. Child locks are not engaged, but I tried putting them on and off too. Just won't open.

Rear Drivers side door will not open from the outside, Handle moves to freely; and will not open from the inside because of the child locks.Suspect it will not open from the outside because of a broken...

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.
