What effect on mother when removing keikies?

I have numerous Den. Kinganiums, 4 pots of which are actually keikes from the mother plant. My question is this. If I keep snapping off the kiekies (and stop potting them up!!) will this make the mom plant thicker, heartier or will it have no effect? These kings are constantly putting out keikes, despite careful monitoring of how much food and water they get, and when. Anyway, just curious...?
