Why a reference to a Node is null?

Hi community:

I only have two nodes, the root is a Node2d and his child is a LineEdit node.

When I write " var a = get_node("LineEdit") " in a script which is atached to the Node2D it say that " a = null "

I wich to know why? Can someone tell me what is going on?

Something you could check: Is the script attached to the parent node (Node2D)? Is your LineEdit node named "LineEdit"? * Where and when are you calling get_node()?
