I didn't realize Mom had also taken a lie detector test. He said she 'didn't want to tell' him the results. So, apparently they have had contact since she's been living somewhere else.
“RCMP weren’t allowed to tell me, I asked” was what he said when asked about the result of Maleyah’s polygraph. I believe you misheard. It would be easy to mishear “she didn’t tell me” I had to replay it to myself 3 times to be sure.
The question about Maleyah’s polygraph begins at about 4:40 in the video.

Would Meadow even be sleeping in the parents' bedroom at that age? Seems like she would be sharing a room with Lily.
It is extremely common for a little kid to be sleeping in the parents bedroom. Co-sleeping until the age of 2-3 is very common among my parenting peers and in many cultures co-sleeping can be a thing up until school age or even until puberty. A little kid on the border between being a baby and being a toddler is by no means common to be isolated to a separate room from parents, especially if there is no empty room for them, but they would share with (potentially nosy or otherwise distruptive) sibling(s).
Jack and Lilly might even share a room, who knows? JMO
I agree that it is likely we are talking about 1-2 bedrooms, not 3-4.
Did they bring in a bowl of cereal and milk for her and she ate it on the bed ?
Meadow is quoted as being 16-months old. Quidelines vary, but it is common to reccommend kids to be breastfed during the first 24 months of life (with complimentary solids being continuously added). IMO for a night/eary morning feeding, this would make sense. It sounded to me like no food preparation was done for this feeding, so that would make sense.

As to what happened to the kids, no idea. Like really no idea. But sadly I think it is unlikely they are alive.

New article here, but nothing really new except a new picture of the kids.

There’s a section in that interview where they are talking about the alleged drug party and he says ‘I know the person who started those rumours and it’s just to take the heat off of themselves’. I wonder what he means by that? Perhaps he does know the truth about who took them and the person who started the rumours about the drug party was involved? Is he being stitched up? JMO. Any thoughts?
My first thought was this is possibly one of Daniel's ex-girlfriends, who could also be his neighbor. Is she a suspect that the police have been questioning?

Do you have a link for the ex-gf/neighbor info? This is the first I've heard of this.

Question for anyone who works for the Child Welfare System. Can a complaint be made against someone anonymously?

And FYI, CPS, Child Protective Services is a United States of America agency.
In Canada its called CAS - Childs Aid Society.

I wonder if the mom's ex, the father of Jack and Lilly, looks something like Daniel. I just mention it because I know Jack is not Daniels biological son, but to me, they look like they could be related. I know someone's mentioned this in this forum before.

In a lot of places in Canada, it is called the Children's Aid Society (CAS) and this is the particularly true for Ontario. This is not true across Canada. Nova Scotia, I believe the Department of Community Services (DCS) provides child protection. There are a number of different names for the services that provide child protection.

Thanks for the correction, child welfare it is!

“Child welfare” is a term used to describe a set of government and private services designed to protect children and encourage family stability. The main aim of these services is to safeguard children from abuse and neglect. Child welfare agencies will typically investigate allegations of abuse and neglect (these activities are called “child protection services”), supervise foster care and arrange adoptions. They also offer services aimed to support families so that they can stay intact and raise children successfully.

Testing for additional needs is in no way done through the school. It is done through the local health authority.
The school will offer assistance in appropriate ways, but no testing is done through a school in Canada.
(I am a Canadian living in Canada with a school aged disabled child with additional needs.)
That's interesting. I live in NY and my niece is a school psychologist. They do not do a formal diagnosis in school; however, they do a lot of assessment tests and analysis through testing in regards to development/learning, etc. A considerable number of school age children have an IEP - individualized education plan based on the results of both the in school testing/assessments as well as diagnosis from medical doctors and the school is legally obligated to make accommodations for the success of the student.

Good post. Im somewhat conflicted. For example absent of emotions, anger towards somebody if he thinks they are murdered or abducted. Frustration because there are no answers yet and time has passed. I don't know, im in the middle.

Jmo
But these are all normal human emotional reactions to a crisis or life changing event . Grief has many faces and not a one size fits all .

Think of the range of emotions that people display at a family funeral not all are visibly Grief stricken with tears streaming down their faces Some even are laughing and joking as they share treasured memories of the person . All acceptable, all normal

I think you’re referring to ‘learning styles’ and we have that sort of testing and accommodate the different styles in schools in Canada as well.

But for neurodevelopmental disabilities such as autism, that would be done through Health Canada in order to obtain diagnosis and provide a wider variety of other programs, benefits, and accommodations in support of the child’s learning.

Yes, we have IEPs in Canada too. Teaching professionals of course will do assessments to determine learning outcomes, development, etc. but they do not offer diagnoses, as that is only for medical professionals. They offer appropriate support in a school setting after medical diagnosis. And we are very grateful for the valuable work they do.

after seeing the interview, I believe him
and I don't suspect Mom
but that doesn't preclude others known to the family being involved IMO
I'm with you on that.I also believe the kids are alive, because if Daniel believed they were deceased I think he would be a mess, instead (to me) it feels more like he's got an awareness he never had before.

I think he might be convincing himself they're still alive (mostly to avoid the heartbreak of the alternative) but realistically I don't think they are, as much as I'd dearly love to be wrong about that.

The only way they could be still alive, is if someone took them and has been providing for them this entire time. That likelihood is extremely low, given all the investigation that's been done up to this point and has yielded zero evidence of an abduction.

My grandson is 15 months and I dont think he has spent one night in his brand new expensive crib lol.
(but I mind my own business in that dept)

Daniel said he was asked "all the questions pertaining to the deaths of Lilly and Jack"

I don't for a second think these kids are alive, sadly.

you could be right I guess :( I just dont feel like I have ever heard anything that would hint at why someone would hurt them, unless maybe an accident?
I'm still holding out hope tho.
