Are seniors allowed to eat meat on Fridays of Lent?

Roman Catholic AnswerYes, they can eat meat if it is not a Friday or Ash Wednesday. Not eating meating is called abstinence, and there is no age requirement for that, all are required to abstain from meat on Fridays; you are thinking of fasting, the obligation of which ceases at 69. Fasting means only one full meal on a fast day.
