With the change of our view on marriage, the divorce rate is rising greatly, and single-parent families have become a social phenomenon that cannot be ignored.Researches show that children in single-parent families are more likely to form an unhealthy self-consciousness, and experience hardships in the process of physical and mental development. Self-consciousness includes the following aspects: people how to cognize themselves, how to evaluate themselves, how to deal with the relationships with others and environment, how to optimize their self-esteem, self-confidence and other emotional experience, how to enhance their self-control and so forth. On the basis of self-knowledge and self-assessment, healthy self-consciousness can help children improve themselves through self-guidance,self-command and self-control, in order to ensure the healthy development of children’s personality and character and adapt to the social life.However, if there are any bad tendencies occurred and haven’t been adjusted during the development of self-consciousness, it might make children’s personality unhealthy and uncoordinated, and let their behaviors get to be biased. Besides, it might even cause a series of social problems. So it is important for children to own a healthy self-consciousness in the psychological development and socialization process.This thesis attempts to explore the assessment to develop healthy self-consciousness of single-parent families’ children in the perspective of social work.

Finally, the author tries to assess the effects of the social group intervention programs, sums up the experiences of the programs and results of the paper, and have some reflects on the lack.
