Less apologizing and more supportive.

Yeah, it should've been more about simply showing support for Claire, and much less about her own desire for forgiveness.
That said, given what we know about Aurelia, it is all still a very innocent slip-up and not exactly something to hold against her as much as Claire seems to do.
Cypher:
Granted Aurelia DID mess up (although it was hardly that devastating), but honestly in real life it seems like Claire would be simply exhausting to have to deal with, at least on a regular basis.
John Allenson:
An apology is good.
Giving an apology while violating the boundaries of the apologee, not so good.
And something that seems to be subtle, making an apology that's about your own feelings rather than the other person's feeling, not so good.

Part of the problem may be that Aurelia has gotten used to *not* having to deal with Claire on a regular basis. Coddling Claire may have been reflexive at one point, but she's been busy with university (especially the last couple of years of it), and is living with Marten now. The transition from dealing with your child as a child to dealing with them as an adult isn't an easy one.

--- End quote ---
The only thing we know is that Claire came out after her dad left. She mentions to Marten at some point that her father doesn't know about her being trans.
