Saul, who later became the apostle Paul, explains it at Acts 22:20
When God's servant, Stephen, was being killed for his support of Jesus, Saul was a young pharisee who hated Christians. When those who witnessed against Stephen prepared to stone Stephen to death (Deuteronomy 17:7), Saul was happy to watch their coats for them while they did the killing, feeling he was doing God's will.(John 16:2)(Acts 8:1).
Later, as the apostle Paul, he was sincerely sorry for these actions and was grateful for God's forgiveness.(1 Timothy 1:12-15)
This phrase refers to the stoning of Stephen, a Christian martyr, in The Bible. The witnesses taking off their robes symbolized them fully participating in the act of executing Stephen by stoning him to death. Saul, who later became the Apostle Paul, was present at this event and approved of Stephen's death.

No, they were raised as Jehovah's Witnesses, they didn't celebrate birthdays or Christmas when they were young.
Allowed is too strong of a term. Young witnesses are discouraged from attending school dances such as the prom because of the extra association with those who may not share their views on morality and bible principles. It would be up to the parents and if they defer, it would be up to the young witness.
