There is one myth, however, that some teachers are teaching as a comma ‘rule.’ Every year, they come to me and tell me that their elementary and middle school teachers taught them to "put a comma in the sentence when they take a breath." That is wrong. A writer uses a comma to indicate when one should take a breath; it is not placed in a sentence because one takes a breath. There is a difference. IF you are one of these teachers, please review commas. PLEASE do not teach this myth. Thank you.
Another useful site is the writing center at Emory. I tried to paste the link here, too, but the post would not go through. Follow this sequence: Emory -> writing center-> grammar resources ->commas. The second myth covers this topic.
