Danny Sue Sylvester was born Daniel Michael Schuester, but had no idea of this at all. Will and Emma Schuester were overjoyed to find out that they were having a baby boy, their first child, and once he was born he was the apple of their eye. Until on some dark, cold night, someone stole away into their home and kidnapped baby Daniel, and punched Will in the face. The Schuesters fought long and hard to try and find their son, not stopping at any cost, including pooling together a lot of money in a campaign to find him, but he was gone. A few years later though, under some strange coincidence, Will's rival Sue Sylvester had announced that she'd adopted herself a toddler who she named Danny, in honor of the Schuester's missing boy that they still hadn't found.
Growing up as the son of Sue Sylvester doesn't exactly mean that Danny had a normal childhood. In high school his grades weren't great and his teachers threatened to hold him back a few years but after a brief conversation with his mother the subject was soon dropped, and Danny found himself getting straight A's and also being handed a lot more things. He was soon quarterback of the football team, captain of the basketball team, dating the head cheerleader with really rich parents and a model for his mother's athleisure wear company, and he didn't have to lift a finger, it was great. Deciding he wanted to play football professionally, and hinting to his mother that the Philadelphia Eagles were the team he wanted to play for, he headed to PSU to major in marketing in case Sue ever needed his help with the company.
But things wouldn't be that perfect forever. When home for the holidays during his second year, Danny was searching through the house for his birth certificate to make a copy of it for future use as his mother was always the one to handle that sort of stuff. But he couldn't find it and instead found some interesting paper work about a baby boy born the same day as him, and mentions of bribery and blackmail to certain doctors and police chiefs. Sue soon caught him snooping around in her room, (which she normally kept heavily guarded but he'd found a way in when he was fourteen and never told her) and he questioned her about everything he had just read, getting angry and yelling, Sue had to come clean and tell him everything. Danny was shocked, betrayed, furious, so many different things and he couldn't believe that he was actually the biological son of the couple that his mother had taught him to hate. He quickly stormed out and never looked back, dropping all contact with his mother and his siblings.
In his time away Danny spiralled out of control, getting into a lot of trouble and fights and even getting arrested a few times. But although he refused to talk to his mother, he still milked money from her for his bail, deciding not to change his surname to make it easier to have that connection back to her. Soon enough Sue cut him off, saying that if he was truly a Sylvester and not a weak, pathetic Schuester, then he'd stop being an embarrassment. Danny's response was to block her number and try to make it on his own. It didn't work exactly and he jumped from job to job trying to make ends meet, even ending up homeless at one point, making him even more bitter towards his mother. But now to finally get one back at her and cause some more chaos he's settled in LA, planning on telling the Schuester's everything. And getting a job near PSU so he can keep an eye on all his siblings. He doesn't blame any of them for what happened and still cares about them in his own weird way, plus he wants to get to know his other siblings, the Schuesters, too.
