Copying this as you said the same thing as another user:
Try to do anything to another adult with consent and you'll have criminal charges.
You can't ground another adult, or take away their stuff. You can with your child.
Also teammates slap each other on the bum all the time.
- vidarh 4y agoAnd if a teammate makes it clear they don't want to, and people still do it, it's battery in the UK, and a criminal offense. In theory it'd be an offense even without a warning, but one might expect the defence to argue they believed there had been prior consent. My ex took someone to court over an unwanted slap on the bum a while back, in case someone thinks this is hypothetic, as the CPS agreed it was a crime though they cautioned they'd have a hard time proving the case. I responded to your other point elsewhere.
