Pretty much all of the common martial arts have programs for young children, usually starting at age 5. Kung Fu and Karate are the two best. If you can find a Ninjitsu instructor, sign up immediately. Real Ninjitsu instructors aren't easy to find. Also, make sure that the program includes Tai-Chi lessons, as those are the self control exercises.

Martial arts are definitely a self-defense for all children. Most instructors will take on a child of any age as long as they can comprehend what they are doing. I've actually watched a class of little ones and they seemed to have fun participating even if they didn't understand some of the stuff.

In self defense you can do whatever the attacker is/trying to do to you. So if he has a gun and you fear for your life, you can shoot him. If he has a knife and can/is making aggressive moves so that you fear for your life you can kill him. If he's just a big guy with issues, you can't kill him. Whatever he is capable of doing to you at the time, that's what you can use to defend yourself with/ whatever is necessary to overcome him and control the situation. In that situation you'd probably be in trouble since he didn't have a weapon you could see. So you could be fearful for your safety, but not really your life, and only if you fear for your life can you take his. You can hurt him until you gain control of the situation, until he stops attacking whomever was the victim, until he doesn't do what he's doing anymore. Any more than that would be excessive force.
