Hi, I am married to a Thai citizen and I have 2 minor children, I have a non-O marriage visa issued by the embassy. Since this year I have not lived with my wife anymore and I moved to another province with one of my children. I've had 400,000 baht deposited in the bank for years. Can I ask for a one-year extension since my child lives with me, even if I'm not divorced? thank you

A commenter suggested that it is possible to request an extension based on raising a half-Thai child, recommending that the user consult their local immigration office for specific requirements.

You can ask for a one year extension of stay based on raising half-Thai child. Ask your local immigration office for the requirements.

That is correct; you do not need to be divorced to get that extension.
