How does one meet the needs of a living child?
Do they require a place to sleep?
Things to eat?
What else should be given to them?
Thank you for any assistance given in the responses.

Different species require different kinds of care, so for more specific dietary needs and other things, the Lunatia library might have some information that would be useful to you.

I worry that it would continue to bite and claw at others, and precious few here have an exoskeleton.
I would not like to see the soft flesh of the mammalian people here scored by its friendly biting and clawing.
Is there perhaps a library that I can access remotely?

There are these things people use for cats called "soft paws" that are used primarily for when the cat is indoors and they don't want the cat to claw furniture or people. It's essentially a coating that goes around the sharpened edge and rounds it off so that the cat may do what's natural, but will not do harm. I wonder if something like that might help the clawing issue, at least. I don't know of an option for remote access. Is there someone you trust to babysit your young dragon in your absence?

I will try to look for something that would do the same, in this case.
The child has attached itself to me, and I would not wish to distress them by forcing them to stay with another.

But you'll need to go out sometimes, and with all of us, there is the possibility we'll be sent back home at any point. It might be good for the dragon child to spend some time with others you trust. Maybe they could play a game while you went to the library.

I do not mind remaining in one place to ensure this child's safety until it is time for them to leave.
Still, you raise a good and useful point.
I do know of a child roughly of an age with them... perhaps their father would be amenable to their playing together.
Thank you for your patience in answering my queries.
I am unused to the needs of creatures not of the Void.

You're welcome. In my world, dragons are mythical creatures, but they are similar enough to lizards in terms of physical traits, which is why I suggested warmth. It would be a good idea to determine if your dragon child is a carnivore, omnivore or herbivore.

They certainly seem to enjoy chewing on my shell.
Perhaps they are insectivorous.

Given their propensity for chewing on anyone and anything they can get away with, they may simply enjoy biting. Or be teething.

I cannot say.
I do not have a mouth, and have no experience of either.
Is this common with children?

It's very common with human children, and with puppies as well. When a human family adopts a puppy, acquiring appropriate things for the puppy to chew on becomes necessary if one wants to avoid having their shoes and other personal things chewed on.

That would likely be my first problem to correct.
Thank you very much for your help.
Please let me know if there is aught that I can do for you.

You're welcome. Good luck with the little one. Perhaps you could go to a butcher shop and see if they have any bones they can spare for your young dragon to chew on.

A wise suggestion.
Thank you once more.
I will find a way to acquire them just now.
