By the way, per the chat log you posted...I don't hear a crazy girl. I hear a sad girl who might be a bit immature.
She seems perfectly cognizant of why she's playing with dolls. She just sounds like she uses it as a crutch. I guess I don't see anything she said as a big deal. A lot of people have crutches.
Does this make her the best candidate for the mother of your child? Probably not but no 19 year old is really perfectly ready for motherhood. And I'm qualified to say this because I had a child 4 months before my 20th bday. I had a lot of help and it was tough. Parenting is a skill that takes time learn and learning emotional maturity during parenting doesn't make it easier.
Its just too bad you didn't know that she was this emotionally immature before you impregnated her but now that the ship has sailed, just see if you can make it right.
