How three people can make a baby

A lot of people said that 2015 would be a year full of surprises and changes and they really meant it so. In 2015 children in de U.K may be born with the DNA of three different people, so they will have one father and two mothers. This idea seems crazy and dangerous for the consequences but it has a nice background because it could save a lot of lifes. 
The procedure would allow women who carry genes with deseases to have their own biological children without passing down the risk and it is an easy process;  the nucleus is taken from a mother's egg and is inserted into the donor egg with the mitochondria. The resulting egg is then fertilized with the father's sperm and a healthy baby can be born.
For now it seems that it has success because the British Parliament voted to pass a bill authorizing this technique and if the House of Lords also votes in favor it probably could become legal by October. 
In my opinion, this method would be a big chance for a lot of families who can't have a baby, but I also think that it also takes a huge risk because the third mother could always want to  require claims for her child.
