Khanmaej is a Kashmiri word that refers to a daughter who is laadli of the family (dearly loved by the family). It's used by parents to express their emotional attachment to their daughters. The term Khanmaej is used to convey the idea that a daughter is so important that she is the mother of the family. This term is often used for daughters who were pampered as children, as daughters typically leave the family when they get married.
