The moon can be seen at any time of day, depending on its phase --- even at high noon! --- if you know where to look.
Tomorrow morning, all morning, it will be high in the western sky.

Starting with the full moon - A day or two before the "full moon" you will see the
moon rise just before sunset. At full moon it will rise as the sun sets, and of course
after the sun sets as the time goes on. Each night after, notice how the light on the
moon shrinks from full to last quarter and then to nothing (a 2 week time period).
Also during this time you will notice the moon "traveling" closer to the sun.
Two weeks from full moon (day may vary) look for the sliver of the moon just before sunset.
As the moon moves into NEW moon and you cannot see at all, watch for it to become noticable
as a sliver in the other direction as the sun sets. Follow the light on the moon as
it expands to first quarter and then to full. So you can actually see the moon and the sun
at the same time virtually most of the month.

No, I don't think that.
The moon is visible in the early morning after sunrise (about a week after full moon its still in the western sky at sunrise).
And the first crescent moon can be seen just before sunset as well.

I've seen the Moon many times during the daylight. You can also see Venus in the daytime, if you know exactly where to look for it. Several stars can also be seen in the daytime with a telescope.

the moon is there 24/7. reason you can't see it in daylight is the sunlight did not shadowed the moon. another way to explain is if you wear a totally black attire like the ninja and hide yourself in some completely dark alley, do you think anyone can see you?

There are times during the phases when it can be seen during the day. I haven't done anything spacy for a while, but i think when it is in the first and third quarter, that is when it can be seen during the day. So no.

I have seen it hundreds of times in the day time. People who think it cannot be seen in the day time just are not paying attention to the sky! Look for it tomorrow morning and you will see it, if it isn't cloudy.
