A mother's unthinkable heartache after her 13-year-old daughter took her own life has reignited the national outcry against bullying.

Emily Stick, a young schoolgirl at the dawn of her teenage years, was the target of relentless online, verbal and physical abuse at her high school on Queensland's Gold Coast.

The bubbly army cadet tried to call and text her mother Sharlene Scott during her final moments, but by the time she checked her phone, it was too late.

'I got a message that night from Emily saying 'I'm going to kill myself',' a tearful Ms Scott told Nine News.

'But I never saw it until it was already too late.'

Ms Scott said her daughter was bullied so severely she was too scared to even go to class, resorting to hiding out in the school toilets to avoid her tormentors.

At one point, Emily was faced with 30 of her classmates who tried to attack her and she was threatened with physical violence daily.

'She couldn't escape it, they followed her everywhere. She had a couple of girls tell her they were going to bash her until she wasn't breathing any more,' an emotional Ms Scott explained.

'Thirty of them tried to attack her – male and females. She was too scared to even go to the bus stop.'

The bullies at Robina State High School were inescapable and the abuse followed the teenager everywhere she went.

The ruthless torment finally broke Emily four weeks ago, when she succumbed to her demons and took her own life.

It has left an unfathomable hole in the lives of her family members who loved her dearly.

Ms Scott now wants to know why her daughter's life was cruelly taken so early.

She has turned her attention to the bullies and has called for greater criminal consequences for cyber bullying.

The day following Emily's death, her mother said some of the remorseless bullies simply laughed.

On Wednesday, a Senate committee is expected to come to a decision after an inquiry into whether perpetrators should attract tougher criminal charges for online abuse.
