No disrespect but what does being black have to do with the usage of the word prejudice? Because the parent you responded to used it correctly.

"Correctly" is weird, which is precisely why I tried state my point in a very non-conclusive way. Which went over like a lead balloon. :)
There's a lot of connotations to that word related to racism. I have no problem with the original commenter calling out that it may not be the best word to use.

It's use is not exclusive to racism. To exclude other uses is ironically prejudiced.
