The following are the main points within this interview, from Daniel himself. Keep in mind that due to Daniel's constant tendency to lie, much of what is said within the full interview may be inaccurate, or completely made up.
 
* Daniel's feelings towards the center are mixed, as he wasn't allowed to go out into the world. He also claims that they didn't learn "normal skills" as they never needed them. It is unclear what this means. Staff are also stated to be called "leaders".

* Once a week Daniel met with a therapist, and once a month Daniel would meet with a doctor who supplied him with medication. The group home Daniel stayed at during his time living at the Tennyson Center was called a "cottage". Daniel claims that it was not worth staying at the Tennyson center, as the staff did not seem to help with anything, and he, quote, "learned everything as if he was an adult". Daniel lived at the Tennyson Center for a year and a half.

* Daniel claims that the reason for him being followed around by staff in school was not due to him being unable to care for himself, but because he had a good friendship with the teachers. During the day, he'd go everywhere with a teacher due to having a friendship that, in his words, "couldn't be broken".

* While in school, Daniel was not fond of his history teachers. This was due to clashes in their personalities, which Daniel claims may be because of his history teacher seeming as though he had his own mental health issues. Daniel claims this teacher had a short temper, and that he was the most hated teacher in the school, due to allegeadly kicking out half of the students in class by the time it ended, which Daniel claims to have happened to him.

* Daniel expresses dislike with how his afformentioned history teacher taught the class, due to how much time was wasted in the beginnings of class, how he'd expect the children to teach themselves, and was almost always in a bad mood. Due to this, Daniel would do anything to get out of his class, so much so to the point where his teacher told him to not even bother coming anymore.
