Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

My husband recently signed a contract for Tae Kwon Do lessons for our 4 year old son without discussing it with me first. I think he got duped into signing a contract for way too long a commitment (14 months), at way too high a price ($2000). On the contract, there is a place for the "Buyer's Signature" which my husband signed, as well as a place for the "Co-Buyer's Signature" which is still blank. As the mother of the Tae Kwon Do student and wife of the "Buyer," I assume I count as the "Co-Buyer." Since I was not given the opportunity to review the contract before my husband signed it and paid in full, is there any way out of the contract now based on the lack of my signature as "Co-Buyer"? Thank you in advance.

The fact that you did not sign it only means that you are not liable. That is not a sufficient legal excuse for your husband to get out of a contract that he signed. There may be other legal grounds to get out of the contract, but it is impossible to sat without seeing the contract itself.
