I've tried this two ways. Please note that my script is in the StarterCharacterScripts folder.
Approach 1:
script.Parent.Health.Disabled = true
Approach 2:
script.Parent.Health:Destroy()
Either way I keep getting the same error:
20:09:24.534 - Health is not a valid member of Model
How can I successfully stop the Health script from working? Any and all help is appreciated.
The problem is that Health is not loaded when the script is loaded; meaning the script is trying to index something that currently does not exist.
To fix this, simply use WaitForChild:
script.Parent:WaitForChild("Health"):Destroy() -- RIP health regen
Also, WaitForChild has a second parameter that has been recently added. Previously, it would wait infinitely for something if it did not exist, causing your code to essentially stop. But now you can add a maximum wait time:
object:WaitForChild("ObjectName",5) -- only searches for ObjectName for 5 seconds
Hope I helped!

You do not need to actually create add code to a script. Simply name it Health, and add it to game.StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts
Why
If you add a script to StarterCharacter, then it will remove all of the scripts in character with the same name. The way the character regenerates health is through a script named Health. Simply putting an empty script named Healthinto StarterPlayer will replace the regeneration with a blank script.
