This always scared me because I don't even know what counts as shaking.

Can you accidentally shake a baby? Can my 2 year old daughter get shaken baby syndrome when older children on an inflatable castle with her jump and bounce too wild around her (she can't jump yet but loves the bouncing)? I've also often seen parents throw their children a bit in the air and then catch them. The children like it and laugh.

I'm not even speaking of law and police but medically. Can this seriously hurt my daughter?

I don't think you should worry too much. Abusive shaking really involves extreme forces. "Routine shaking" occurring during play is not expected to be harmful to healthy children. Games should be adapted to the age of children according to common sense.

The takeaway of biomechanics studies is basically that you should be much more careful about accidental head impacts on hard surfaces.
