Madonna's Special Treatment Irritates Some in IA Community
Madonna gets baby, other parents wait
Madonna took her new baby home from Malawi on Monday, a week after the pop star reportedly applied to adopt the boy.
For regular folks, the international adoption process grinds on much slower -- typically a year or more for babies from the most popular country, China.
"I have never heard of a child being adopted from Malawi at all, so it's not something that's common or mainstream at all," said Bob McNeill, director of intercountry programs at Sunny Ridge Family Center in Wheaton, which handles close to 100 foreign adoptions each year.
