This is sort of confusing. In the comics there are 3 Robins. The first is Dick Grayson and joins up with Batman and then the Teen Titans. He later leaves Batman's side and becomes Nightwing, and joins up with the Outsiders at one point.
The second Robin is Jason Todd, who the Joker killed but is now back from the dead as a villain.
The third Robin is Tim Drake, whose father recently died. He is the Robin in the current Teen Titans as well as helping out Batman.
In the T.V. show, the mid 1990's Batman featured a robin who was Dick Grayson. Later, after the show was reworked, with a new animation format, Tim Drake became the new Robin. He was younger, went by Tim. Also, they showed Nightwing in several episodes and hinted that there had been a falling out between him and Batman.
When the Teen Titans show started, they never stated which Robin it was. However, he looks young and was done in a similar animation style to the second Robin in the TV Batman show. This would leave one to believe that the Robin in the show is Tim Drake. However, the Teen Titans team is much more similar to the Dick Grayson era, and many of the story lines come from that time as well. Furthermore, his fighting style and attitude reflect more of the Dick Grayson Robin than the Tim Drake Robin. Also, the relationship with Slade (Deathstroke) is more along the lines of Dick Grayson. Therefore, this is probably why the t.v. show has never stated which Robin it is suppose to be, instead leaving it ambiguous so that it could be either.
This is why it is all so confusing, but for the most part, you can assume that it is the same Robin character, even if not the exact same person.

The Robin in Teen Titans is Tim Drake, the second Robin that shows up in the Batman series. There are three Robins all together *I believe, perhaps more, three that I know of off the top of my head*
Dick Grayson *The Robin that becomes Nightwing*
Jason Todd *Whom the Joker 'kills'*
Time Drake *Who is depicted in the teen titans*
Originally I think that it's Dick Grayson that actually begins the Teen Titans, I am going off of memory. Anyway, hope that helps
As I said, I am speaking about the Teen Titans cartoon, not the original comic, the comic teen titan robin is Dick Grayson, Cartoon Network Teen Titan Robin is Tim Drake..

Yes.
Richard John "Dick" Grayson is a fictional superhero in the DC Comics Universe. He is Bruce Wayne's first ward (later on adopted son), and the original Robin, The Boy Wonder (later The Teen Wonder), before evolving into the superhero Nightwing. Invented by Batman creators Bob Kane and Bill Finger and illustrator Jerry Robinson, he first appears as Robin in Detective Comics #38 (May 1940).
The youngest in a family of acrobats known as the "Flying Graysons", Dick watches his parents killed by a mafia boss to extort money from the circus that employs them. Bruce Wayne, secretly Batman, takes him in as his legal ward.
Throughout Dick's adolescence, Batman and Robin are inseparable, but, as Dick grows older and spends more time as the leader of the Teen Titans, he takes on the identity of Nightwing to assert his independence (other teenaged heroes will later fill in the role of Robin). His Nightwing persona was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Pérez, and first appears in Tales of the New Teen Titans #44 (July 1984).
As Nightwing, Dick Grayson leads the Teen Titans and later the Outsiders. In an eponymous series, launched in 1996 and continuing at present, he becomes the protector of Blüdhaven, Gotham's economically troubled neighboring city.
As Robin, Dick Grayson has appeared in most other media adaptations of Batman. The Batman animated series of the 1990s is the only one thus far to portray his evolution into Nightwing.

Robin helps keep batman from going more insane then he already is. also jason was the second robin and was more just made to brighten the story up after they made dick grow up
