I have the same situation. We will be on the Breakaway this up coming Sunday, and then the Getaway in June. Our DD is 12, but she is a foodie. She loves to experience different cuisines, and when we travel, we splurge on restaurant experiences. I plan on just paying for her a la carte. But at Cagney's, I can't imagine eating a 16oz rib eye by myself so I might just give her half. If the wait staff says anything, I'll deal with it...like you're telling a mother not to give her kid a bite of her food? LOL When we were on a RCL cruise two years ago, DH couldn't go because he got COVID, so they allowed DD to use DH's meals. It's a different cruise line, but like other people said, it might be a case by case basis.
