Just edit the file /etc/shadow and search for something like

mysql:!!:12363:0:99999:7:::
mywife:THEPASSWORD:12363:0:99999:7:::

and delete the password, and let it blank as:

mywife::12363:0:99999:7:::

But you must remember this is a big security Hole... try to (i don't
know the word in english but in spanish is convencer) your wife to use a
password.
