Why does a husband and wife resort to verbally abusing one another?  The short answer is to control the other to influence their behavior.  There is a more subtle reason as well.  Basic disrespect.  Do you verbally abuse one another by answering a question with a sarcastic question?  Instead, speak the truth in love. (Ephesians 4:15).
