I know that it's unsettling, to say the least. But look at it this way: it is an opportunity, arranged by your Father in heaven, for you to demonstrate magnanimity (i.e. generosity, or mercy), peace, and self-control. When you hear the LC cadence break out, and you want to cover your ears and eyes and run screaming, just look up at your Father, give thanks for the moment, and it will pass. It will pass. You may be young in the Lord but you are not too young for battle. If you calmly accept your lot, God will use you. God put you there, and wants to use you.
