Is it how the family account is supposed to work?
Not even no. There is no such thing as a "family account". The Families plan is a way to collect each family member's individual accounts such that vaults can be shared, subscription costs reduced, etc.
When she logs in to 1Password app using her password, which is the same for both account
This confirms that you are doing something very wrong. She should use her 1Password master password to authenticate to her 1Password account in her 1Password clients using her system accounts on her or your shared devices. You, and each other family member, should do the equivalent.
There should never be any shared 1Password accounts, just Vaults.
Family Organiser is just a role which is assigned to family members. These members should be technically competent, responsible, and familiar with 1Password. There should be at least two organisers, even if one typically does all the work. There is no "organizer password".
It sounds like you've created an account which should not exist. I suggest first ensuring that you are a family organizer, that each member of your family members' account is Active, that at least one other family member is an organiser, and that everyone can authenticate to their accounts, then removing any additional accounts and ensuring that each member of the family understands how to use shared Vaults.
