The **ParentNode.empty()** method would remove all child nodes from the parent node.
### Syntax
```js
ParentNode.empty();
```
### Rationale:
Like `append()`, `prepend()`, `before()`, `after()`, and `replaceWith()`, we’re allowing developers to do something useful without a loop, e.g:
```js
while (parentNode.lastChild) {
parentNode.removeChild(parentNode.lastChild);
}
```
