I don't think that's what ADHD feels like at all. The best way I can describe ADHD is : 1. Poor Short Term Memory , 2. Inability to make oneself do certain things while being much more able than others to do certain other things and 3. Needing a big picture view before getting deep because 1 causes one to get lost in details.

There's not really just one experience of ADHD, so you're right in disagreeing with the parent, but wrong to claim it's not like that and instead matches your own list.
