If it says the password is incorrect then it is in fact incorrect. If your daughters account is an admin then you can simply reset your main account password.

If it isn't an admin account and yours is a local account (not an MS account) then you can follow this and blank out or reset your password.

does your password have a @ or a $ in it?
if so then you may have set your keyboard to a different layout and the work around would be to plug in a usb keyboard to sign in with
