I feel sorry for that little boy..I wouldn't want my young child to be filming such scenes-would give them nightmares! How do they prepare these kids for tough storylines like this..?

From what I've read it's always ensured they understand it's just pretend and even turned into a bit of a game. The parents of young children are always on set to make sure they're happy.Quote:

They might replace the baby with a doll in those scenes, Dazzle
I think they do when they can get away with it, but I've seen scenes with people shouting with what's obviously a real baby. I'm sure everything possible's done to keep the babies feeling happy, but I can't help but worry that it's causing them stress sometimes.Quote:

Perdita makes a good point about the use of dolls .Reminded me of a programme on TV a while back where the dolls used are so realistic with electronically controlled movement ,even down to facial expressions, very difficult to detect...:)Quote:

Found above by putting" babies affected shouting"
In search.
Back to tv & soaps- would small ear plugs help
shield baby from noise- for short periods?

I'm sure you're right about there being strict controls Glen. The production company wouldn't want to risk being sued for starters! :)Quote:
