Could The Presence Of Flat Feet Responsible For Falling?

My 10 year old daughter has flat feet. She has falling in school, during soccer and at camp injuring her self each time even breaking bones. The orthopedic feels its due to flat feet and wants her to wear dorsiflexion ankle braces at night. Could flat feet really be to blame? Or could there be another reason?
