Did Zeus' dad abuse his power?

well its mostly Zeus dad who abused his power because his dad would eat his children right after Zeus's mom gave birth to them so he didn't have brothers and sisters because his dad ate them all because he new that one of his children would over thrown him. but his wife new he was eating the children so she put a brick in a wrapped up blanket and gave it to her husband to eat instead of Zeus. She put Zeus in a blanket and hide the baby up in the mountains and the goat up there would feed him and when ever Zeus would cry they would take the swords and bang them together. Until Zeus grew up he couldn't leave there. Until after he grew up and over throwned Zeus's dad and found out that his dad ate people and other people would eat humans two so Zeus found out and freed his brothers and sisters and put his dad in a bad part of the underworld named tartarus but he eventually excapted.

Did Zeus eat his parents?

Zeus didn't eat his parents. His dad, Cronos, ate his 5 brothers and sisters. The story began when Cronos killed his father then got a prophecy saying that one of his children will overthrow him. He ate everyone of his children EXCEPT Zeus. Rhea gave Cronos a rock to eat instead of Zeus. She was tricky and told a shepard to raise Zeus. He was raised by bees and a goat instead. Zeus overthrew Cronos and Cronos vomited up Zeus' brothers and sisters.
