Without valid reasons you will not receive anywhere in the local area.

any idea what the valid reasons are

Thai spouse/child and retirement over age 50 are the most common but even those will not qualify for a multi entry at many locations.

I think I remember someone posting you could get a one year O in Penang if showing financial resources and condo ownership papers. Really true?

If under 50 yrs, but have a child with a Thai - what is the best options ?

Ony tourist visa single entry, or ?

Apply at immigration in Thailand, or must apply outside ?

please teach me

Birth certificate with your name on it should be enough to obtain a non immigrant O visa at most Consulates I suspect. There is no provision for extension of stay from Immigration however.
