>The mother petitioned the court to have her minor daughter sterilized.
Anyone can petition anything. Granting a petition that does something that would violate someone else's rights despite them not having done anything wrong is fundamentally wrong. Forced sterilization, especially without your knowledge, is akin to capital punishment. If you get it wrong then nothing can make amends for it, because you cannot undo it.
