Mint 13 Requiring User's Password To Be Changed At Login

[gdawg]

I recently installed Mint 13 KDE in my 64 bit laptop and created a couple of user accounts but the user is required to change their password each time they login. How can I correct this?

Experimentation revealed that the solution was to designate new users' without signifying a password. Password must be entered when they login. Please mark as solved since I can't seem to mark it as solved.in the subject-line.
