The moon appears high in the sky because the moon is in space. We are on earth.
We are on the ground and the moon is in the sky. The moon appears to be highest in the sky in the tropical regions of the world, just like the sun - since the moon's orbit is almost perpendicular to the tropics.
At higher latitudes, the moon will appear lower in the sky for the same reason as the sun is.

Can you see a full moon in the daytime?
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.

Is there a relationship between the phase of the moon such as full or quarter and how high the moon is in the sky?
No. The Moons phases are determined by the relative angles between the Sun, Earth and Moon. The changing position of the moon in the sky is because of the Earth's rotation, so is dependent on the time of day.

What moon phase is highest in the sky at sunrise?
The moon phase that is highest in the sky at sunrise is the full moon. During this phase, the moon is directly opposite the sun in the sky, which means it rises around sunset and is highest at midnight. By sunrise, the full moon will have already begun to set, but it can still be seen high in the sky just before it descends.
When the moon comes out does the sky turn apsulootly dark?
No, the moon comes out at a much earlier time then when the sky turns dark. This is due to the orbit of the moon. The moon is visible in the sky during the day. So, no the sky does not turn absolutely dark when the moon comes out. If it did, then we would have extremely long nights.
Why does the moon sometimes appear so big in the sky?

When the sky is totally dark an you cannot see the moon?
Technically speaking, when you cannot see the moon, it is a new moon. But my thinking is that if you can't see the moon, how can it be new? So my definition of a new moon is when you can see a smile in the sky because the moon is happy that it has just been born, but when you see a frown in the sky, the moon is sad because it is dying. Then you get the scientific "new moon."
