Same fields updated in Master Detail relationship when Workflow invoked

I have a Master Detail Relationship say Parent A and Child B. One Parent Record has several Child records. I have a field to update on one Child record based on some criteria. When I run a workflow with some criteria, all the fields on the Child records get updated with the same value. The Field I am updating is a Picklist.  I am using Process Builder to update a checkbox on the Child record. and then a workflow to update the Field.  No matter what workaround i try to accomplish this , I get the same results... all child record fields updated with the same value.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

One thing to add, when I run the independent workflow on a single child record, only the one field gets updated which is correct.
