How to override a parent component in UE4 C++?

I am searching for this for a while, and the best way I found by now (which is not inheritance at all):

1. So you create your component “MyHealth” that includes a function named “Kill” and you create an EventDispatcher: OnKill which is called at the end of your Kill function.
2. Create your classes (or blueprint) that implements MyHealth. (can be anything with health in your game)
3. You want to kill your char… So you call MyHealth-Kill()

This will call the Kill function in the MyHealth (only in the component blueprint and where you do your default implementation) and then the event.

If you want to do something else in your actor implementing MyHealth, add the event OnKill.

Thank you for your help, but I don’t see how it can solve my problem. I need to attach an object to a player using an inherited component.
