The main things you'd be looking to do are activate forum.module and
taxonomy.module. Taxonomy.module provides categories for content and can
be used to create different categories or subforums in your wife's
website. See Drupal's forums for what I am talking about.

Next, you will need to change the user permissions. Require that users
be registered to see and post to the forums. Next, require that the site
administrator (you or your wife) review and approve each user sign up.

Hoepfully this will get you on your way.
