 Hello,
ADHD can manifest itself in many different ways but it is quite common for behavior to vary with circumstances. They also are prone to stimulation overload and this can prompt meltdowns. Sometimes children do well at school, with good structure and then wind down at home. As they relax in a safe environment they sometimes let out their pent-up energy. But this is entirely unique to the individual and how he/she handles this disorder. Medications can be adjusted to help with the stressful times.
Good luck.
