So the story tried to give a Reimu a reason to prefer only the kids that resemble her? That's kinda weird, outside of arrogant shitheadness they don't have much of a reason.
Assuming the translation for the previous image is accurate, it seems the mother hates ANY child is bad if its not a Reimu. Its a "my type is superior, so all other types should die" story.

Check again, it's more like "developing the idea based on a incident" instead of shithead discriminative ways into action.
Basically she had a kid Marisa and everything was fine, until she chastized her for being close to humans when Reimu told her not to, even if the human was good one has to admit it's a good teaching since not every human is nice and will give candy, Marisa instead of accepting goes about how she hates mom, that mom is shit and that mom should die, etc. etc. etc. Then Reimu develops the "only the kids that look like Reimu are good, uh?"
Usually the Shitheads prefer the kids of their own types out of an arrogant and delusional view of themselves, this is the first case i see on which some kind of "past incident" influences the attitude, instead of the "Well i'm so great, of course the kids that look like me will be great, who needs those uneasy "not like me" kids?"

Read the whole story, its closer to what JIE said. The Reimu doesn't necessarily think Reimu-types are superior, its just that experience has made her believe that Marisa Ko's are scum. Thinking that 'Marisa ko's = scum' does not equal 'Reimus are superior.' ...... It'll probably lead to that though.
I still think this is a case of at least scum, just, this time product of a bad experience and typical yukkuri hijinks and shenaningans, like how 1 single komarisa made her suddenly hate komarisas, that may be an exagerate and overblown reaction and hating "kid types" out of 1 single incident is bleh.
But at least it's slightly better than the average shithead reason.
