So dont encourage them. I made that mistake. After I stablised a jump point they crashed the economy by kidnaping half the population from the homeworld.
You can prevent that by setting your HW population as "Stable" rather than "Source". That tells the civvies not to take population from there.
I was aware but those sneaky civs lured me into letting them take a few locally and waited till I wasnt paying attention and then "voom! like a rat out of an aquaduct."
