Kronos castrated his father Ouranos because his mother Gaia asked him to. Ouranos had a dream that one of his sons would overthrow him, so he pushed all the babies back into Gaia's womb. Of course Gaia was upset about this and asked her children to help her but Kronos was the one to step forward and he castrated his father.
Ouranos
Kronos was a TITAN, this meaning he was the youngest offspring of Gaea (Earth) and Ouranos (Sky), it was he who castrated Ouranos his father. With his sister-wife Rhea he had six children: Hestia, Hera, Demeter, Poseidon, Hades, and Zeus.
The Titans were the first children of Ouranos (sky) and Gaea (earth). There were many of them, but the leader was Kronos. He was the father of many of the Olympians.
Cronus' symbol was a sickle used to harvest crops.
He is not a god. He is a Titan. He is important because he chopped his father, Ouranos, to pieces. He ate all of his children so they couldn't take over, but Rhea, his wife, put Zeus in a cave so Kronos couldn't eat him. Zeus chopped Kronos to pieces and lobbed him in the pit of Tartarus. Zeus started the reign of the greek gods (Olympians).

Kronos was the son of Ouranos and Gaea and the leader of the Titans. He sired the next generation of gods, the Olympians. He was the personification of the Heavens.
Ouranos died since Kronos, the "Strongest" Titan, had killed him with a Scythe. He was then transferred to Tartarus, where he could not escape, and therefore was deemed "Dead".
Demeter was daughter of Rhea and Kronos, Titans born of Gaea and Ouranos.
Oranos was born from Gaia (mother earth) from chaos. gaia also gave birth to pontus, titan god of the sea. gaia mated with oranos and they had 12 children Including Kronos and Rheia. Ouranos had other children such as cerebus of the underworld so he banished them deep into Gaia's body. gaia was in a lot of pain so she told Kronos to castrate his father (cutting the genitals off) So Kronos took over the role of King of the Titans and married his sister Rheia and they had 6 children including Zeus, Hades and Poseiden. Kronos had feared a revoloution so he swallowed 5 of his children except for Zeus which gaia hid and kept him safe until he was able to overthrow Kronos and banish him to tartarus. This was the birth of the olympian gods and that is how they all came to be kings
