“Chokchai Chatchan” — A Father Who Gave Up a Life of Adventure to Stay by His Children’s Side for As Long as Possible
Chokchai Chatchan, a 56-year-old farmer from Chiang Mai, once lived a daring life in the wilderness in search of inspiration. Today, he has taken a different path, choosing to stay home to care for his children — a decision driven by something far deeper than any thrill. From Adventurer to Devoted Father
“I used to love living a rugged life, challenging myself in the forest to find inspiration, ” Chokchai shared about his former self. “I’ve always believed in the principle ‘No pain, no gain’ — nothing comes easy. That’s the kind of life I wanted. But now, I’ve had to stop, because I’d rather stay home and take care of my kids.”

The turning point in Chokchai’s life centers on his concern for his children, especially his middle child, who still needs support with everyday life. “If I’m no longer in this world, my biggest worry is my child — the one who can’t care for herself yet. Not the youngest, but the middle one. She’s now been diagnosed with autism. I just want her to be able to live in this world and survive.”

Life Insurance and His Children’s Dreams
Chokchai admitted that he once lived without much thought for the future — even neglecting the care his children deserved. “I want to apologize for living so recklessly back then, not thinking about coming back or being there for them as I should have.”
Determined to secure his children’s future, he decided to buy life insurance. “Before I die, I want to get life insurance because it allows me to design my children’s lives,” he said. To him, money can help turn dreams into reality. “I believe anyone’s dreams can change — if you have money, everything is possible.”

A Legacy of Dreams for Every Child
This life insurance payout represents the hope Chokchai wishes to leave behind for his children — so each one can pursue their dreams to the fullest.
- The eldest child will be able to pursue an acting career the right way.
- The youngest child will have access to education funds and be able to continue studying as hoped.
- The middle child will have medical funds to support ongoing treatment and self-care, ensuring that someone will be there to help and care for her when I am no longer around.
“When I’m gone, this money will take care of them in my place and help them fulfill their dreams,”
Chokchai said with a voice full of love and hope. “I just want to be with them every day. I want to be with them as long as I can.”
