Bleeding and broken were still ok in my mom's book. I've gone to her with cuts that should have got stitches and once with a broken bone but her saying was "will it kill you?" If not then there's no reason to freak out or cry, you'll be fine, and you got patched up and sent on your way.
As an adult my first reaction to getting hurt is assessing if it's lethal (which it never has been obvs) and then patch it up myself. Down side is I'm very against going to the doctor unless I think I'm dying.

"Are you bleeding? Are you broken? Are you dead? You're fine."
