Based on the genetics on the possible Simon family, we can confirm that they, in fact, are not the Simon family. Mrs. Simon has blonde hair, and two of the daughters except Jenny have blonde hair. Look at the possible Mr. Simon. He has brown hair. Jenny has black hair. In order for it to be biological, Mr. and Mrs. Simon have to have black hair alleles, which can't happen because if they did, they'd have black hair. But they may still be a family in one, two or all of these ways:

1. Mr. Simon is not the biological Simon father, but a step father. Or Mrs. Simon was a step mother.

2. Jenny was adopted. (I listed this as a possibility because it's well confirmed Ike is adopted, but he still appears in the Broflovski family)

3. Either Jenny, Jenny's mother or Jenny's  father dyed their hair.

Number one seems most likely to me, but I guess we'll have to wait. Who knows? Maybe Stone and Parker will reveal this. But they are a minor family, so I wouldn't take that chance, and until they do, just pick your theory.
