Traversing the parent using .parentNode is incorrect.

I don't fully understand the question which told me to traverse the parent element of removeMe button. I tried removeMe.parentElement too since it says "parent element", but still incorrect. Am I missing anything?

I think there's a bug on this question as I was having the same problem. Try typing 

removeMe.parentnode

without a semicolon and see if that works.
