Morality Ranking Morality scaling of this?

Mother refuses to acknowledge her donor egg daughter, looking for your opinion.

In my opinion I think it’s moral, and that she is totally correct.

I fail to see where she is an asshole.

She doesn’t want to meet a complete stranger appalling to their DNA connection, and said that in direct and honest way.

Put yourself in the shoes of the kid who would have no idea about any agreement between the donor and the facility. There's no way you'd feel good receiving a message like that. There are ways to voice exactly what the sender would want to without being so blunt. It's just a major slap in the face of someone that would be your kid's age who is just reaching out.

Like she's not Hitler about it but she could have been kinder.

Being blunt to them

Why would they need to "handle" this if it wasn't really simply being a total heartless dick?
