Im sure he doesnt umpire for fun. He does it to make a little money.
Can you see things from his side? Does that change anything?

I do understand he is upset that his wife is unhappy and emotionally distant and his job is super stressful, so I do try to be as understanding as possible, but civility is a two way street.
He was the one who hit me as a defenseless child, to the point of almost permanently damaging my wrist and giving me a hard enough bump on the head that I not only saw stars, but the world was spinning for a few minutes. I think my sympathy is well deserved.
Also, we walked the dogs together, it wasn't like I up and left it all to him.
