  1. Because of paternal instinct When you are a parent you truly do want to try to make the best for your child But since the fact that Marcus Aurelius had attempted to use his friends as advisors for his son after his death is an indication that he was aware of his son's faults and tried one last time to provide wisdom for his son

  2. "My son the very day you were born the hills of Rome whispered the name..... Commodus" "My child, I watched with pride as you grew into a weapon, of righteousness." "Remember our line had always ruled with wisdom and strength, and I know that you will show restraint when exercising your great power." "But the truest victory my son is stirring the hearts of your people, I tell you this because when my days are gone, you shall be emperor" - Marcus Aurelius World of Rome, Wrath of the Lich king Gladiator
