No kidding. Children's hair and adult's hair is made of the same stuff - keratin. It's a protein. So of course the lice/nits are going to like both environments. However, the incidence of nits in children is much higher than in adults. Didn't you know that? It's mainly because children attend school and play boisterous physical games. Adults are less social and more sedentary. It's amazing how many people don't have the first clue when it comes to the transmission of disease. Do you think you can catch AIDS from taking a drag on someone's cigarette? Perhaps you're too foolish to know you're a fool.
Is it normal to get nits and head lice as a female adult?
