Kim claims that at 18-months-old, Rylan would hold his breath until he passed out.
When he turned three, he stabbed knives inside a watermelon and became more and more violent.
She says her son has an imaginary robot friend called Bleeder - and he says the character tells him to kill his entire family with knives.
Kim said: 'He talks about how he is going to lift them [knives] up over his head and plunge them into our chest.'
She added: 'When Rylan was six he locked himself in the bathroom, he found his older brother's razor and he cut off the tips of his fingers because he wanted to see them bleed.
'In Rylan's head, Bleeder was the one who told him to cut his fingers so he could see the blood and feel the pain.
