The weekly segment of originally produced content will be featured on the site's new online channel, "Alicia Coppola on Parenthood Today". In each short episode, the LA-based mother of three will provide answers to questions covering pregnancy, baby names, parenting techniques, sibling rivalry, and more.

Coppola, who currently portrays Talia Hale, the werewolf mother of Derek Hale on MTV's "Teen Wolf", has recently published her first book, "Gracefully Gone". In her book, Coppola describes a decade-long journey of dealing with the her father's struggle with cancer. In the Parenthood Today web-series, Coppola will also talk about helping children cope with the loss of a loved one. "It is all too often, unfortunate and sad that the children of a sick parent become collateral damage. This is not due to neglectful parenting or lack of love; neither the children, nor the parents are to blame. The disease is to blame. For it is what robs our children of the childhood innocence and the security they deserve. It is imperative that we treat these children and their grief with extra love, hugs, honesty and respect. The ill parents life trajectory is on its path, but the children are still being formed by their surroundings. The focus should be on them. The children need the attention the most," says Coppola.

With a total of 20 webisodes, scheduled to be released on a weekly basis over the coming months, the new online video channel will offer great added value to parents who frequent the website, searching for quality video content on parenting, pregnancy, family pastimes and childcare.

Alicia Coppola began her career in television in the early 1990's and received a Soap Opera Digest Award for her portrayal of Lorna Devon in "Another World". She has since appeared in supporting roles on various TV shows, including "Crossing Jordan", "American Dreams", "Two and a Half Men" and "Teen Wolf". She currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband and three daughters.
