You need to read your instructions from the London website, not VJ members from other countries.

London says--

Step One

Complete the Form DS-230-Part 1, Form DS-156 and DS-157 for each family member applying for a visa. In addition, the principal applicant is also required to complete form DS-156K. Note: Forms DS-156 and DS-157 must be completed in duplicate.

Source:

That means you will do I-157 regardless of age, sex, etc. if you apply in London.
