Can someone under 18 be a host? My niece wants to do a catalog show for me to help out this month. She's 17, just wasn't for sure if she had to be 18 to put it under her name. I know we could put it under her mom's but I would love to give her the credit if she collects the orders.

As far as I know, there is no age requirement for being a host for a catalog show. However, it's always best to check with the specific company or organization you are working with to make sure they don't have any age restrictions in place. It's great that your niece wants to help out and it's definitely worth giving her the credit if she collects the orders. Good luck with your catalog show!
