I Love Taking Selfies I managed to "borrow" a camera from school to try and match my father's...

Not bad, but it depends on what you were aiming for... When you say you "don't think I have the same talent" as your father, you mean on the technical level or on the artistic level? Technique can always be learned, and the artistic part, well, it depends what you want to convey/communicate... I don't see anything wrong with this pic, technically, although there's nothing dramatic about it from an artistic perspective. Some people might object that it's "too colorful" by today's minimalist preferences, but in the 1960s photographers liked that richness of colors... What I mean to say is: you are the one who set the standards you want to achieve... it's never a matter of trying to emulate your father or anyone else, unless you [i]really[/i] like some else's style...

It’s nice, I was expecting your feet to be popping up at the back there, that would have made this shot a million times better

A little too much colour saturation for my taste but the subject matter the pose the depth of field and the expression are excellent. I hope you aren't discouraged. Considering it's a borrowed camera you did a great job.
