I think her point is, that it isn’t the childs thing to give away. Its something that should be discussed with parents.
The father escorting his daughter to the chassan is what is called “chuppah” according to a number of rishonim. If a father is escorting his daughter, should the other father accompany them or does it make sense for the mother to do so. There are numerous minhagim to try and me makaim as many opinions of the rishonim as possible. Its best that everone follow their family minhag.
