Tell her that due to the fact episodes were made in adjacense to Toriyama`s manga volume publishings (which were slow), the anime creators were often forced to implement fillers in order to "fill" the time beetween publishings. Allthough these could be as small as a prolonged attack, they could have been as large as a story of it`s own a.k.a movie.
In conclusion, since these stories were made to entertain the viewers while Toriyama worked on the main storyline, they are not a part of the DBZ canon and even sometimes cause plot holes.
