It's confusing trying to follow your situation. Why did you not apply for an ED visa inside Thailand for your kid? Once she had this you could have applied for a guardian visa. Too late now for you as I think you've got the must leave within 7 days stamp, but your daughter could still possibly get the ED visa. Then it's just you that needs sorted so you need to find an embassy that will issue a guardian visa for you. I'd suggest coming back in visa exempt and applying for the guardian visa inside Thailand but given your history that might be a bit risky.
