Although it didn't sound too out of time, it will still help you out a lot - Work on making it clean - didn't sound bad at all, but I suggest playing it slowly first, working on a slow tempo with a metronome, and then building it up faster and faster over time. - Bending - Always bend up with the bottom 3 strings on the guitar, and I'm not sure if you did or not, but use other free fingers to support your bend behind it.

A father always looks out for the safety of his kids. For reasons that you may not quite understand just yet, please make sure he is cool with it before you send anything out. You will be much happier knowing that you have secured his permission up front before you regret doing what he asks that you don't do. I have three kids and I know where he is coming from. It's NOT worth it. Ask for his help and be persistent but respectful. I don't mean to throw out an Oprah lesson here, but getting him positively involved in this now may lead to him helping you out in the future. If he asks you not to do it and you do it anyway, he might resent that you are on GMC altogether and any future references you make to it or any other guitar related stuff may turn him off completely. my 2 cents man.

You do not qualify for an aspiring lesson yet - all though you have a good start, one can tell you have been practicing. Follow all the advice you have got so far - and you will be well on your way.
