His only Christmas wish is for his parents to be returned.

Bulungi: Simon's parents are held captive in an unnamed poverty-stricken country in Africa. Even though it's pointed out that Simon could stand to be more specific, Santa and Mary Ellen arrive what's apparently a short walk and a longer drive away from where they are. This part of the film was actually shot in Senegal.

Adults Are Useless: Seriously, the janitor physically abuses Simon in front of other students and even his teacher and yet somehow is not immediately fired and brought up on charges.
