Why doesn't Athena the greek god have a mom?

Well, honey, in Greek mythology, Athena sprang fully grown and armored from the head of her father Zeus after he swallowed her pregnant mother, Metis. So, technically, she didn't have a mom in the traditional sense because Zeus pulled a fast one and decided to play both mom and dad. Greek gods, am I right?

Is Zeus a good father?

In my opinion, no. According to evolutioary theory, yes, as Zeus was able to father many, many children. Thus, he is more reproductively fit than other males who did not pass on their genes to as many offspring. However, Zeus, for the most part, did not actually have any further interaction with these children after they were sired with only a few exceptions. (Athena and Dinoysus, for example, were both born from Zeus -- head and thigh, respectively -- after Zeus killed their mothers -- Athena's purposefully and Dinoysus' accidentally)

What is athenas birth story?

Zeus desired her mother, Metis (who was also his cousin), who was a Titaness (part of the Titan race who were old rivals to the Greek Gods). She devised the plan for Zeus to get Kronos to vomit up his siblings. Metis is the Titan goddess of advice, wisdom, and cunning. She was Zeus's advisor and lover during the Titan war. It was prophesized that she would later bear a daughter, and then a son, who would rule the world (surpass Zeus). Zeus, afraid of having his children overpower him (a repeat of what happened to his father, Kronos), tricked a then pregnant Metis into turning into a fly (after a game of transformation) and swallowed her whole. After several months, Zeus began to suffer terrible headaches and called for Hephaestus to split his head to end the pain. Upon doing so, a fully grown (and clothed by Metis, who faithfully spun clothes and made armor for her daughter inside Zeus' head--the hammering of her helmet was the source of Zeus' headaches) Athena sprang from his skull. Metis remains in Zeus' head as a source of wisdom and counsel.
