        The senior center of Lynn MA is run like a daycare. No respect is shown to the seniors who attend here, unless they are of Spanish/dominican descent. Preference is given to the Spanish/ Dominicans in attendance, The meals are of a very low grade consistency. Extremely sugary snacks are served on a daily basis. Many of the attendants here have medical problems which require little or no sugar in their diets. Why is it that attention to age is strongly enforced here ( unless the person/persons are of Spanish/Dominican background. (All ages are then welcome including children. ) Why is it that Americans are not welcomed at the Spanish senior center of Lynn? All descents are welcome at both Lynn Senior Center and Kabota,the Russian Senior Center of Lynn.
