"Never mind" ... Is something you say if you want the speaker to disregard what you just said. For me, if I have to say the same thing over and over again because the other person didn't hear me, I will get tired of repeating and say, "never mind".
"Don't care" ... Maybe someone asks you what you want to eat for lunch, but you don't know or are in the mood to eat anything, so you could say, "I don't care."
"What do you want to do today?" your friend asks.
"I don't care," you say.
