I have told my daughters about my past - sex, drug, drinking. I didn't go into detail, but I did tell them on how my past has effected me. I admitted my mistakes, but also how I have learned from my experience. Knowing about my past help them understand why I am hard on them on certain things. They know they could come to me because I was not perfect at their age. I think you could let them know you were once like them (young and stupid) without going into glory details.
