I think I'm flat footed because my dad is but in fact I can see a small arch on my foot.

it's not binary. there are varying degrees of flat-footedness.
a flat foot can be a very healthy foot. it's no problem.
it's not a yes-or-no decision.
compared to average...you could be
high arch
normal arch
somewhat flat footed
quite flat footed
very flat footed
extremely flat footed
or the most flat footed person the doctor ever saw.
you will fall in the range somewhere.

Only a podiatrist can tell you for sure, but generally flat footed persons develop excruciating foot pain after a full day spend standing up. The problem can be solved quite easily by wearing specially made arches placed in your footwear.

I can also see a small arch in my foot, but the reason I know that i am flat footed is because alot of flat footed ppl have leg problems. So since i am into sports my legs go through alot because of my flat footedness.

if you can feel the middle of your foot hitting the ground then you know if your flat footed.
