Answer : How can I make radio buttons mandatory fields?

MVC is a key pattern for software development. As you know, it means responsibilities are divided between the Model (the business rules), the View (the UI) and the Controller (the user actions).

I would change your design as shown in your diagram a bit to not go to the level of a Label.
