courts have recognised that where a parent has not made any contribution to a child's life, s/he may be seen to have abdicated responsibility and cannot possibly be considered to have "sole responsibility"

so you shouldn't have a problem , but small chance, be prepared for an interview, just in case they ask you about his father.

YES, U are right Joebloggs but i'm only answering adam's specific case that the father was no longer in contact of the kid...as long as ECO satistisfied of the explaination i'm sure it will b ok..
