I'm afraid I'm raising a serial killer: Parents

A mother has revealed that she thinks her seven-year-old son might one day turn into a serial killer.

Rylan was adopted from a meth addict by Kim and Ryan when he was just a baby, but has gone on to display some disturbing behaviour.

He was also addicted to drugs and when they first got him, Kim and Ryan were unable touch his skin because it hurt him so much.

Now Kim and Ryan desperately want help.

In the past Ryan has:

• Chopped his fingertips off
• A friend called Bleeder
• Threatened to kill his family
• Frequently held his breath so long that he passes out

Speaking on the Dr Phil Show, his mother said: ‘He talks about stabbing us, about how he’s going to lift [knives] up over his head and plunge them into our chests so that he gets the best impact.

‘My biggest fear is that we’re raising a school shooter, a mass murderer, a serial killer.’

Kim revealed that both of Rylan’s parents had bipolar disorder and his mother was addicted to drugs.

Although they are now separated, Kim and Ryan take it in turns to look after Rylan.

Kim added: ‘I want to live with Rylan, but having him at home is too terrifying. Although it’s hard to send Rylan away to hospitals, what other choice do we have?’

At 18 months, Rylan held his breath until he passed out.

When he was three he stabbed a watermelon repeatedly.

He has an imaginary robot friend called Bleeder and at the age of six, Rylan said Bleeder told him to chop his fingertips off. He locked himself in the bathroom and used a razor blade ‘because he wanted to see them bleed’ and feel the pain.
