My Legacy's a matriarchy and it's written like a book.

If anyone wants to read it. :)
Also, I'm going to repost my long question, in case it got lost and Pinstar or someone else who knows the rules inside and out didn't see it:
Question
I have the teen pregnancy mod on my game, but haven't used it for my legacy family, for fear of breaking the rules of the legacy. I know that if you were to get a teenager pregnant, it would give you an unfair advantage over other players without that mod, since you have the option of having children to carry on the bloodline sooner.
BUT
Recently, I've been toying with a story to put in my legacy that involves this mod and I think just maybe this story fits through a loophole in the "no mods that give unfair advantages" rule... maybe... but I'm not completely sure, which is why I'm asking here.
Okay, so I picked an heiress at birth, but as she got older, she developed horrible traits for an heiress. On the other hand, her younger sister seems like she may become a much better candidate.
Now I don't want to just say "Oh well my founder changed her mind for no apparent reason, so la dee da". That will obviously confuse and irritate my readers (I write my legacy like a book on my blog).
I was thinking of getting my heiress pregnant as a teenager and then her parents getting so angry that they tell her she's not responsible enough to take on the responsibilities of carrying on the bloodline and strip her of her title as heiress, giving it to her little sister.
I thought that this might just be allowed, considering that the child from the former heiress would no longer be eligible to carry on the bloodline. He/She could technically earn me some points, but there's really no difference whether those points are earned sooner or later in the game. The child still has the same lifespan, even with a teenage mother.
So by using the teen pregnancy mod, I make that teen and her child null and void to carry on the family line and thereby lose any advantage I might have had by having my heiress give birth to a child in her teenage years.
I REALLY hope I can do this. It would make SUCH an awesome story, haha.
