Athena tells Odysseus to reveal his identity to Telemachus, as there is no point in keeping it hidden from him. Telemachus can also help his father on his quest for vengeance, as he is completely trustworthy.
Telemachus' mother was with him for the first 20 years of his life without his father. She might have told him. Odysseus was very popular in his home, the city of Ithaca. The town's people would have told him. Telemachus was once a toddler. We all know how questionable little toddlers are! he would have defiantly asked as soon as he could talk.

He did not say anything to Poseidon; rather, he blinded Polyphemus, the god's cyclops son, because of his pride (his hubris) Odysseus revealed his true identity to the cyclops, and in return Polyphemus told his father (the resulting hamartia.)
Well, first of all, Eurymachus participated in the consumption of Odysseus' food and drink. He tried to steal his wifey and schemed to murder his son, Telemachus. He was the second worst of all the suitors, Antinous being the first. After Odysseus had killed Antinous, then Eurymachus tried to blame everything on him. He told him that they could pay Odysseus back for the food and drink consumption. Basically, he was lying and dishonoring Odysseus, which was a big no-no to ancient Grecians. So, Odysseus shot him bulls-eye in the nipple with an arrow. He was the 2nd to die. Haha, stinks for him.:)
Circe told him about the Siren and Scylla and Chrybdis
(A+) Athene
Telemachus was the son of Odysseus and Penelope. It was Helen of Troy who noticed the tears of Telemachus and told him that he looked like Odysseus.
Athene noticed Telemachus' tears and told him he looked like his father, Odysseus. She then reassured him and encouraged him to take action against the suitors.

Yes, Odysseus did tell Penelope to remarry once their son Telemachus could grow a beard. This was a way of ensuring that Penelope would wait for him during his long absence at the Trojan War, knowing that Telemachus would be a grown man by the time he returned.
Odysseus told Penelope to take the women and go to the upper chamber and do not talk to any man.
she was the wife of menelaus, the spartan commander, who took in odysseus' son telemachus when he sailed for news of his father. she told a prophecy that oddyseus would return home before telemachus left for ithaca, his homeland.
Telemachus sets out to find his father so that he can either confirm his father's death or survival. He is told to do so by Athena disguised as Mentor. If he hears that his father is still alive, he can wait for at least another 12 months. If he hears that Odysseus is dead, he can mourn his father's death and marry off his mother.
Yes, he's married to Penelope. Odysseus and Penelope have a son, Telemachus. Odysseus tells Penelope, "You must promise me, if I don't come back by the time Telemachus has a beard, you must marry." Penelope promises. Odysseus, still alive after 20 years, comes back to Ithaca to find suitors (men who are trying to marry Penelope) all over his home. Penelope knew he was still alive after 20 years, but people kept telling her he was dead. Suitors are very mean. Athena discuises Odysseus as an old beggar, and he, and telemachus go to their house. Penelope doesn't know it's odyssus. she tells Odysseus (the "beggar") that he still loves Odysseus and promised that she'd marry when telemachus had a beard. he had a beard now. so she held a contest to pick a husband. the contest was to string Odysseus's box & shoot an arrow through 12 ax handles. all the suitors failed to string the bow. Odysseus, the beggar, strung the box, and shot it through the 12 ax handles. he, and telemachus, killed the suitors. Athena turned Odysseus back into his old self after he killed the suitors. Penelope didn't know if it was really Odysseus, so she told the maids to remove their bed from their tree & into another room. Odysseus got mad, since right after he left for troy, he built their house & bed around a tree. Their bed was basically their symbol. Penelope then realized it was really Odysseus. Penelope & Odysseus were then reunited with each other again. Hope I helped! (:

Odysseus told the swineherd if his lord didn't return as Odysseus said he would, the swineherd should kill him so that other beggars wouldn't try to deceive him.
