They are rude to adults and I feel humiliated

ADHD child behaviour

What to do right now

They said the thing, or used the tone, and you are mortified. The rudeness was not calculated. ADHD verbal impulsivity means the thought became the spoken word before the social filter could engage. Address it after, not during. 'The way you spoke to that person came across as rude. I know you did not mean it that way. Next time, try this instead.' Give them the replacement, not just the correction.
