Abstract
Through the ages human beings have developed psycho-hygienic concepts as a measure of self-preservation of their own mental life, which are connected with a cultural-historical development of mankind, history of philosophical thought, pedagogical culture, formation of the moral bases of social life. The psycho-hygiene of child family education is a basic condition for the prevention of psychological violation and, consequently, for the formation of a stable sense of safety and personal security. Psychological and pedagogical means, consciously applied by parents, have a function of the mental health protection and prevention of the medical interference and legal sanctions. Psycho-hygienic criteria of children and adolescents' mental health quality, their classification in accordance with the mental health groups allows us to determine appropriate levels of the mental states in their age variability. The methods of the inter-consistency of age of the functioning of personality help predict psycho-hygiene prognosis of certain traumatic stages of the family life. If the culture of mental self-assessment and self-control is considered as a norm of self-observation of the relationship between the child's personality and estimated continuum of the micro-social environment, this makes it possible to apply a pedagogical method that has significant psycho-hygiene opportunities and a large psycho-traumatic potential The article presents a complete classification of the estimated judgments, and methods to determine the child's needs in the self-assessment, which is formed by the micro-social environment.
