What did the royal whipping boy do?
When the price did something bad, then his father would have to spank him. But if the prince has a whipping boy, then his father yells to go get the whipping boy. The father puts the whipping boy on a table, pulles down the whipping boys pants, then spanks the whipping boy how many times the prince wants the whipping boy to get hurt. So the king spanks the whippingboy how many times the prince wants the king to spnk the whipping boy and then the whipping boy earns a coin or 2. also sometimes they would chain the whipping boy to a desk. the whipping boy and prince were great companions and were educated together. this happened between the Tudor and Stuart monarchs. The king had whipping boys because the princes behind was considered holy. By having one of the princes only friends be whipped while the prince watched, the king thought the prince would change. Most of the time he did. for more info. on the whipping boy, try reading the "Prince and the Pauper."

Why did Henry VIII have a whipping boy?
A whipping boy was a young boy assigned to a prince, usually around the age of the prince, who was punished in lieu of the prince. So, when Henry VIII was young he would have had a whipping boy assigned to him and this child was punished whenever Henry misbehaved or fell behind in his schooling. Whipping boys existed because of the 'devine right of kings' which stated that kings were appointed by God and implied that no one but the king was worthy of punishing the king's son. Kings were often far too busy, therefore tutors found it hard to enforce rules or learning. They were generally of high birth and educated with the prince since birth, forming an emotional bond between the two. The idea of the whipping boys was that seeing a friend being whipped or beaten for something that he had done wrong would be likely to ensure that the prince would not make the same mistake again.
