That is why he is Robin same way Bruce adopted Jason to help him, Dick wants to help Jason to become a better person. Morrison himself points this out in Batman and Robin.

Tim isn't seeing it that way, he wants the good old days back when Bruce was Batman, Dick was Nightwing, he was Robin and Damien didn't exist.
