Out of every 24 hours, the moon is up in the sky for about 12hours 49minutes.
In the course of a month, it spends the same number of hours in the daytime sky
as it does in the night-time sky.
The way it works out, though, the moon's phase ... the amount that's illuminated ...
is smaller in the day and larger at night, on the long-term average.
Technically, the Full Moon rises at sunset, so it's the only phase that's not visible
in the daytime.

It IS possible to see the moon in the daytime, and it is not a rare event.
Because this is how the moon cycle works: MOON---EARTH---SUN=full moon EARTH---MOON---SUN=new moon. So, when you see the moon during the daytime, it's because its orbit is interfering with the Sun's. But during a full moon, when the moon is behind the Earth, it cannot interfere. See?

The only reasons why you wouldn't be able to see the full moon would be that either it is daytime (the full moon rises at sunset, and sets at sunrise), or it is during totality of a lunar eclipse, or your eyes are closed. The full moon is the brightest thing in the night sky. It's almost possible to read by it.
The Full Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky and therefore it rises as the Sun sets and sets as the Sun rises. (Actually, near the Earth's poles in summer, you can see the Full Moon during daylight.) You can never see the New Moon either because it is in line with the Sun and hidden by glare. (You can see the New Moon in the daytime, but only when there is a solar eclipse.)
Kinda because the sun is so bright you cannot see it but if you search really good for it you might be lucky enough to see it
Full moon means the sun is on one side of the earth and the moon is on the other. Sometimes the moon passes through the shadow of the earth at the moment of full moon. If you are on the sunny side of the earth (daytime!), you can't see the eclipse; if you are on the dark side of the earth (night!), you can see it.
You can sometimes. You can't see the moon in the daytime, because the sun is in front of it, and it is too bright just like you can't see the stars in the day. I hope that helps!
The Moon itself doesn't change at all. What we see as the "phases" of the Moon are simply the month-long days and nights on the Moon's surface. The light comes from the Sun, over THERE, while we see the daylit part of the Moon from the Earth, HERE. At the "new" phase, the daytime side of the Moon is the farside; at the new, we're seeing the lunar night. At the full moon, we see the lunar noon.
