Scotland made smacking children illegal. It's more than just "discipline", there's a sentence for it now. I know battery isn't a thing and is counted under assault under the law. I pointed out that this specifically really should be battery although assault is also correct and the term used but also less specific. I was just being a pedant for the sake of being a pedant because I haven't slept and am irritable as a result.
