Do they check ID on Carnival cruise?

No one really carried ID on the ship, but they will check your cruise card (which will act as your ID, charge card, and room key) that will indicate your underage. That being said, you can't take your friends' card and buy drinks because it will have their picture on it when they swipe the card to check/charge.
