Giving a thumbs up in Thailand is extremely disrespectful and rude in Thailand ? As Thai, I don't think so.

In Thailand I never seen giving a thumbs up consider " extremely rude " ( like giving middlefinger ). For child, giving a thumbs up may called Pông ( โป้ง from thumb in thai language นิ้วโป้ง ) mean " I'm angry at you " but it's just childrish level.
