Am American, can confirm. Harry Potter was very localized in the early books.

So did a very British Harry Potter in that edition talk about his "mom" and dad?

If the OP has grown up with that sort of thing, it's more understandable why even the concept of Britpicking would fill them with confusion.

I think "mom" was used for "mum" in the first printing or so until Rowling put her foot down ("Molly Weasley is not a mom"). Stuff like "jumper" -> "sweater" and "trainers" -> "sneakers" was still going on several books in, though.
