They can say all they want that Daniel was going to go to school in the Bahamas...but you can bet if Daniel feared his mother was in a drug induced state Howard did not want him back in her life...he would loose control again of her as she would then be dependent upon Daniel and not Stern. Daniel's roommate should be able to validate alot this stuff...was he truly moving? Did he only have a one way ticket? Did he packup all of his stuff? Some of this stuff can be checked out...
And even Dr. khris said Daniel was torn, that he wanted to be with his mom and baby sister, yet he really wished she'd come back to California. ( on ET earlier this week?)
