吳憶樺小朋友監護權爭奪事件，雖已隨著吳童返回巴西愉港市外祖母家中而告一段茖，然而，此一衝突事件在發展過程中所呈顯與內涵的諸多政策醫義，特別是其中所隱藏與兒童福利政策有關的常度盲點，並未隨著事件熱度的沈寂而消失，尚待學術、實務界持續關注探討。本文基於此一初衷，於取得吳童監護事件國內各項判決後，整理出本倳件之事實經過，繼而將雙方當事人所提出之各次司法註訟事件及非訟事件，進行說明並整理表列，以呈現出就監護事件而言，我國現行常度下所可能進行之司法程序。爾後，則就我國之監護制度進行介紹及說明，以作為與法院審理活動對話之基礎。於確認我國監護制度之整體架構後，本文則以此說明吳童監護事件之法律癓結，並對於司法審理進行評述，特別是就法院於判定吳童之最佳利益時所表示之見解，包括程序面之設計及實質面之判斷，進行闡析，原則上，吳童監護事乏司法審理，頗能合乎程序要求，並提出許多學理佐證之見解，值得今後參酌。
