First off, try joining some unschooling co-ops to give yourself a pet on the back. Kids are kids. We can't expect them to be studious and take full responsibility of their studies even though they are responsible. They don't have the determination even if they understood the seriousness and are 100% in agreement with how important study is. Their brain just hasn't developed to reason and will not fully develop until they are about 35 especially if their boys but that's just the science behind it. Cut them some slack for the simple fact they are kids.
But what we can do is to work with what we have. Try gearing more towards game schooling or fun schooling for now because given the situation, we need to get used to working with kids. This does not necessarily mean electronics. You could even join forest schooling Facebook groups.
Study should be its own inspiration and reward.
