I would go with option two BUT if you DO go with option one (waiting until they are old enough to understand) DON'T wait until it's convenient to tell them in order to scare them away from drugs. Wait till they're old enough to comprehend the implications but not already wanting to try drugs and alchohol. As others have said, if you wait too long it will be viewed as manipulative.
Besides, if you wait til their a teenager. What teenager believes everything their parents says?? or even LISTENS??
