crazy idea, but perhaps you should find some way to let your parents see who you are while you're alive?

Sure, but sometimes death happens before people repair relationships to a point they can really do that.

It'll be less effort than building the tool you're describing. Are you neuroatypical maybe? Maybe it's just not in you to share like that (it's not in me).

That's not necessarily at all. I could build a rough version in a week. It shouldn't take anyone much effort to imagine that there are all types of situations and broken relationships that could take significantly longer to repair.

This really has nothing to do with being neurotypical or neurodiverse. There might be some generalizations and correlations there, but really it's just about personality and lived experiences and situations.

Seems like you have it all figured out. Good luck.
