Cruiseaptp Posted March 3, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Can a boy teenager wear dress shorts to DInner in MDR on Seaside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homosassa Posted March 3, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2018 According to the suggested dress code, no. Whether one wishes to teach young people to follow the rules is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbelc Posted March 4, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 4, 2018 He might be sent to his room to put on pants. We had a teen boy with our group on the Radiance and he was sent back to the room to change out of his sleeveless t shirt on a casual night. It wasn’t an undershirt. They turned him around at the door. They did not, however, say anything to Grandpa for wearing his bright red political baseball cap to dinner.

Put pants on or go to the buffet. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asctony Posted March 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 5, 2018 There is no enforcement of any dress code that is suggested on any cruise line anymore! This applies to MSC, RCI, Princess, NCL, Celebrity, etc. All these cruise lines have gone to whatever. We have been on all of them within the past 12 months and have seen even during Formal/Gala/Chick nites people wearing whatever they want and getting into the MDR. Do we agree with that? We like to dress up and we do. So, wear what you think you can get away with. When and if you get into the MDR, your OK. If they send you back to the cabin, change or go to the Buffet. Happy Cruising!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h0twired Posted March 5, 2018 #18 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Is it that hard to get your kids to wear something nicer dinner? We were traveling with 4 kids between the ages of 5-9 and none of them had issues wearing some nice pants and a collared shirt or dresses to dinner.

cbelc Posted March 5, 2018 #19 Share Posted March 5, 2018 MSC staffers seemed not to care about what people wore anywhere. There was a sign on the back of the room door that explained what was not allowed in public areas after 6 PM. Shorts were included on the disallowed list, but the clothing police did not show up. It was prior to 6, but there was a large guy on deck wearing a tiny thong speedo. He might as well have been totally nude. Let that teen wear nice dress shorts, but warn him that he might be sent to the room to change. Or carry some rolled up pants in your bag so he could dash to the bathroom to change if need be.

Cruiseaptp Posted March 6, 2018 Author #23 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Wow! Now I have a very small understanding how kids/teenagers feel being bullied on social media. Maybe my question was not as detailed as it should have been. My son will not wear white pants to white out night but he will wear white dress shorts with a white shirt. Yes he could wear something else and change out later. That is why I asked my original question. Thank you for those that have been on the Seaside and have seen what others have been wearing! Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamrose228 Posted March 6, 2018 #24 Share Posted March 6, 2018 In december my 24 year old son when he came to the MDR in khaki shorts and a collared shirt was turned away on HAL. Half of the gramps were wearing ill fitting jeans and tight polo shirts. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovetheCubs Posted March 6, 2018 #25 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Wow! Now I have a very small understanding how kids/teenagers feel being bullied on social media This is why I hate posting questions. Becuase you will probably be mocked/laughed at/ or bullied. We know where kids are getting it from! I wish people would go by the old saying “if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all!” I don’t see why being mean and rude is warranted?!
