"There will be a meet-and-greet at the beginning of the cruise.  After that, there will be planned events like dances, video games or other group games.  My kids used to go to the initial meet-and-greet and thereafter they just hung around with the kids they met at that first event, sometimes at the teen club but mostly just walking around the ship, getting ice cream, etc.  \n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\tI would recommend that you talk to him ahead of time, and let him know that even though he might be scared, he should really try to be brave, and give it a shot by attending some events and trying to be friendly.  Other kids will be \"in the same boat\"  (see what I did there?  😉 ) and will also be nervous.  If he does this, he'll have a great time and he'll meet friends that he might even stay in touch with forever.  My daughters still have friends from cruises we took when they were kids.\n "
