Having done some teaching in today's "new age of education", It seems to me that about 85% of "ADHD" kids today...

...very closely resemble "KWWB" (kids-who-won't-behave) 35 years ago.

It's difficult to know - from your post - if your student is one of the 85% or one of the 15% (that may actually have a genuine problem).

Remember that you, like everyone else, are not obligated to do anything you do not wish to do.

Me? I'm not very forgiving. For the small amount of teaching that I make time to do, one missed lesson (no notice / poor excuse / etc.) = permanent dismissal. Two "bad" lessons (unprepared) = dismissal. Life's too short...
