When i had my son, I didn't name his dad on the birth certificate.

He's now 3 and his Dad is a very important part of my sons life.

How do I go about making sure my sons Dad has Parental responsibility?

You can have him added to the birth certificate or you can enter into a Parental Responsibility Agreement with him. The form for a PRA along with instructions as to how to use it can be found at assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/867257/c_pra1_-eng.pdf
