%X We present a critical analysis of the Skyrmion model for baryons. Using model quantum field theories we determine the origin of meson chiral effective actions and show that Skyrmions, i.e. chiral topological solitons of these effective actions, cannot be related to baryons and that indeed Skyrmions in these models are unstable.
