"If you die before me, please try and come back to tell me there is something after this world..."
I have a made a promise to all of my family members that if there is something after death, I will try to come back and make contact with them.
Have you done the same?

I don't know. Some years ago I wanted to know, but now that I feel that there is something after this world I'm not as compelled to have it proven in this way. Does that make sense. Besides whose to say that their afterlife and yours will be the same? Isn't possible with all of these different gods, goddesses etc that we could all go to our own afterlife of choice?
As for whether my family would want to know if there is an afterlife, I don't think some of them would. One or 2 are so devoutly Christian they wouldn't belive it anyway even if I did come back and make contact. It would have to depend on the person and my relationship to them.
I think I'd like a chance to come back and say "all is well with me, please don't grieve", or words to that effect.

Yes. My mother and I made such a pact when I was about twelve years old. She died when I was seventeen and, even though I was pretty much past any superstitions by that point of my life, I kept an open mind because we'd made a promise.
Decades have passed since then, and I'm not at all surprised that there's been no "sign" from my mother because she ceased to exist the day she died. I wish that weren't so, but it is, and reality doesn't change to accommodate our desires.

People constantly come back and try to make contact but even if your loved ones saw you they would still not accept that it was real. And actually coming and making contact does not say there is an afterlife necessarily - it just suggests that something survives death.

No, but Houdini did. He told his wife that when he died if there was an afterlife he would contact her. His widowed wife had numerous sainces which bore nothing. She finally gave up and proclaimed, "I'm sure he's gone."

No, most of my family are quite good, they don't believe in any kind of life after death.

yes. but i know there is something afterwards. my grandfather showed me he is ok after he died. it takes tremendous hard work for them to come back and communicate after they have gone.

Forgive me for this long and rambling biblical reply, but it has to do with how it is impossible to communicate from Hell.
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Don't!, They won't believe you. If God have come to this world and tell us Heaven and Hell and people cannot accept and believe them, just think, Do You think you can just because they are your parents?

The dead are not allowed to contact the living. Only Jesus, Satan, and demons are allowed to roam the earth.
