I spend my summers teaching karate to kids, and I can concur with all those above who stated that the parents are to blame. I've wasted more time with "ADHD" under-10s than I care to think about, when 99.9% of those cases come down to parents not wanting to take responsibility and rein them in. I was expected in 45 minutes, twice a week, to make up for what they weren't doing the other 166.5 hours of the week.
Anyway, speaking from that, I'll repeat what others have said; it's no fault of your own. In cases like this, offering to reschedule is a good courtesy, and helps your word-of-mouth reputation, but you also have to think of your own sanity, and whether or not the time spent is truly worth it.
