Thank you all. After reading all of your posts, I do think it's good that I know what I am good at and what I am not good at. I think it would benefit a child for me to realize that they are not a good fit for me and actually admit that to the parents. That would allow them to find a daycare that will have more patience with their child and be better at helping that child reach his/her full potential; whether it's because of the child having special needs or being an age that I don't work well with. I take pride that I offer a really good quality daycare, but if I am not performing my best with a particular child, then that child is not receiving quality daycare services.

I didn't mean to offend anyone with the terms 'special needs' or 'slow minded' like someone said in my defense. I honestly don't know any other terms to have used.
