Why did cronus swallow his children? Let ME explain this better. Cronus was told that the next son he would have would kill him and rule the gods. So, cronus ate his 5 children. But his wife hid the last child and gave cronus a rock instead of Zues and when he was old enough he had metis create a potion that would make cronus spit up the children he had swallowed. After the gods/godesses were out of cronus they all fought him. The titans helped cronus. The ttans were sent to tartarus where they would be punished forever and Cronus was killed.

Poseidon hated Cronus because Cronus was the Titan Lord and the Lord of Time. Not to mention he was his father. When Cronus had children with his wife, the gods, he feared they would overthrow him like he did his father. So he ate them. Including Posedon. That doesn't exactlt create a good relationship. That's why Poseidon hates Cronus
