Troubleshooting a Forgotten Mac Account Password:

Reset this Password Using the Login Screen:

You'd go through your Apple ID to perform this. Find out more here: If you Forgot your Mac Login Password - Apple Support. Make sure that caps lock is not enabled when typing it. No Success? Go here: If you can't Reset your Mac Login Password - Apple Support

"My daughter has her UN and PW, it's my admin PW that I forgot. Does this address admin pw other than main user? It doesn't look to"

Use the Login Screen:

As the Administrator, are you seen at the login screen? If so, that is where to perform this.
