What abuse did the king of Britain do to the 13 colonies that made them sign the declaration of independence?
"Abuse" is probably not the right word. And it was not the King in person by then who ruled Britain and its colonies, it was the British government and Parliament. What happened was that a couple of taxes were imposed that were highly unpopular amongst the colonists, who then unsuccessfully demanded that taxes should and could only be imposed on them if they were adequately represented in the British Parliament. One of the unpopular measures was that Britain had left a sizable army in the colonies after the French-Indian war and levied a tax on the colonies to pay for its upkeep. Britain held that the army was there for the colonies' protection in case the hostilities were renewed, so it was only right that they should pay for it. The colonies saw the army as an occupation force and considered having to pay for it as adding insult to injury.

Why did Britain began interfering in the Colonies affairs in 1763?
The colonies were British and under the rule of the king. He felt he owned them. It wasn't they were interested all of a sudden. Since the early days they set laws on trade and what the colonies could sell. The big difference in the 1770's was the colonies were reacting to the policies from the king. The French and Indian war put pressure on the king to collect more in taxes to pay for it and he reasoned that since it was fought in North America that he had protected the colonies and they should help pay for it. This caused a reaction in the colonies and the king responded to that reaction.
