"My mother considered the idea of a child sleeping alone a cruel American practice."

Explanation:

This is the excerpt that best indicates that Hema's mother is of Bengali heritage. In this excerpt, Hema talks about how her mother felt about a child sleeping on his own. Hema's mother thinks this is a cold and cruel practice. It is unlikely that she would believe that if she was of American heritage. Moreover, she refers to this as an "American" practice, which shows that Hema's mother thinks of American practices as different to her own.
