I also told my daughter "don't give one word answers, try to tell a story". For example "Where are you from?" Instead of just saying Sometown USA, say we moved around a lot, etc or I have always lived in Sometown but enjoy traveling to.... If your daughter is comfortable with the conversation, she will have a more enjoyable time. Good luck to her.
This is similar to the advice that my mother gave me, the most important part being "don't give one word answers".

To the OP, take a minute to cool off. It's understandable for people to question why she isn't here asking herself, you've explained, and now it's all good.
