Kid was born in UK and had a Thai passport previously.  New Thai passport not possible as no Thai ID (not living in Thailand as adult). Question, does he still retain Thai citizenship or does it need some kind of confirmation?  He does not need a new Thai passport I am just wondering if he remains Thai and has a right to one/residency in the future. 

Contact the nearest Thai Emb with the expired Thai passport

There is no such thing as "British English"

British English (BrE, en-GB, or BE)[3] is the set of varieties of the English language native to the island of Great Britain.[6] More narrowly, it can refer specifically to the English language in England, or, more broadly, to the collective dialects of English throughout the British Isles taken as a single umbrella variety, for instance additionally incorporating Scottish English, Welsh English, and Ulster English.

A lot of women will talk and give a number if you ask as a face saving gesture, then not follow up. It's not really the same as getting a number in other countries.

Correct 100%

You can even go into immigration a couple of days after the report back date a there will be no problem.

That is true, if you are inside Thailand.

If outside Thailand and dont return by the last day of the under consideration stamp, your extension is gone.

It's not 'a religion'

According to National Geographic -

Buddhism is one of the world’s largest religions and originated 2,500 years ago in India. Buddhists believe that the human life is one of suffering, and that meditation, spiritual and physical labor, and good behavior are the ways to achieve enlightenment, or nirvana.

Is it possible for a parent who has no job connections whatsoever with Thailand to obtain a Guardian Visa just to stay long-term in Thailand by sending the child to an international school in Thailand ?

 

I have always thought the child's visa is sponsored by the parent, so that the parent must at least have some legal reason to remain in Thailand, and then the international school will accept the child to study in the school and give her an Education Visa.

 

Is the opposite way possible ?

Possible, if you have 400,000 baht in your Thai account and sole custody of the child granted by the Thai court

Really?  What do you base that on, I'm guessing that you must have something empirical?

Last month I checked Singapore was a developed country with a stable government and an economy.

Their national bank DBS has been awarded the title of the safest Bank in Asia.

Never seen such awards and accolades given to a Thai bank

See here -

International Wealth Management by Asia’s safest bank

Established and headquartered in Singapore — Asia’s leading financial hub — DBS Bank is a leader in Asian wealth management, and Singapore’s largest bank. DBS Bank’s ‘AA-’ and ‘Aa2’ credit ratings are among the highest in the world.
