The Greek/Roman deities had both 'good' and 'bad' sides. They were not perfect. With Cronus, he could be considered 'bad' since he swallowed his children in an attempt to prevent a prophecy from coming true, that a child of his would overthrow him. However, he was also a god of agriculture, and was a ruler during the Golden Age, a time of peace and prosperity.
