The morality and/or safety of it is for another discussion, but so long as no money is exchanged, and they're all consenting adults, you are probably good to go.

The site usually has a policy to not allow minors to sign up. But, as an added level of protection to yourself, I would make sure they're legal if they look young. I had a client who got into similar trouble, and it was a mess to sort out.
