What I have seen is people dispute the soundness of these arguments (ie. whether the premises leading to the conclusion are all true) . The validity if I recall correctly, no one disputed.
Did you google the definition of valid?
Here is the first that comes up:
val·id
ˈvaləd/
adjective
- (of an argument or point) having a sound basis in logic or fact; reasonable or cogent.
"a valid criticism"
synonyms:
well founded, sound, reasonable, rational, logical, justifiable, defensible, viable, bona fide;More

So far all the arguments I've shown her, she said seem to be valid, what she advised I do is clarify what is meant by every premise (more elaboration) so to make the soundness more clear if it is sound.
Have her join AF please.
