it is. i couldn't care less about your experiences. people are arrested all the time because they make protests about certain religions and say that they are all responsible for the actions of others. it is still prejudice and if I have to spell out the logic as to why it is then so be it:

- you acknowledge that some staff members under the age of 16 are good, some are bad. you also acknowledge that not all over the age of 16 are good either.
- you say that the solution to this problem is to bar any under 16 from joining the staff team.
- you are therefore labelling under 16s as immature in their entirety based on some experiences, and thus it is a prejudicial concept.
